Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) have progressed steadily through three stages of photoactive
materials development:(i) use of poly (3-hexylthiophene) and fullerene-based acceptors …

This review surveys recent progress in the chemistry of polycyclic heteroaromatic molecules
with a focus on structural diversity and synthetic methodology. The article covers literature …

Organic solar cells (OSCs) were dominated by donor–acceptor blends based on polymer
donors and fullerene acceptors for nearly two decades. In the past, apprehensions about the …

Despite the significant progresses made in all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) recently, the
relatively low short-circuit current density (J sc) and large energy loss are still quite difficult to …

Due to the intrinsically flexible molecular skeletons and loose aggregations, organic
semiconductors, like small molecular acceptors (SMAs) in organic solar cells (OSCs), greatly …

Abstract Near‐infrared (NIR)‐absorbing organic semiconductors have opened up many
exciting opportunities for organic photovoltaic (OPV) research. For example, new …
