Multi‐component Copolymerized Donors enable Frozen Nano‐morphology and Superior Ductility for Efficient Binary Organic Solar Cells

Multi-component copolymerized donors (MCDs) have gained significant interest and have been rapidly developed in flexible organic solar cells (f-OSCs) in recent years. However, ensuring the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of f-OSCs while retaining ideal mechanical properties remains an enormous challenge. The fracture strain (FS) value of typical high-efficiency blend films is generally less than 8 %, which is far from the application standards of wearable photovoltaic devices. Therefore, we developed a series of novel MCDs after meticulous molecular design. Among them, the consistent MCD backbone and end-capped functional group formed a highly conjugated molecular plane, and the solubilization and mechanical properties were effectively optimized by modifying the proportion of solubilized alkyl chains. Consequently, due to the formation of entangled structures with a frozen blend film morphology considerably improved the high ductility of the active layer, P1
