Abstract
Organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs) using Y-series nonfullerene electron acceptors (NFA) have recently achieved record high efficiencies. However, there is still lack of experimental investigation on how individual molecules and different aggregates of these NFAs contribute to the overall charge transfer (CT) properties. We fabricated solid-solution thin films by dispersing Y-series NFA molecules in insulating polymers at various loading ratios and the CT property has been investigated using electroabsorption (EA) spectroscopy. This study provides direct experimental evidence on the origin of the strong CT character in thin film and brings insight into the correlation between charge transfer and delocalization of wavefunction.
