With the rapid development of power conversion efficiency (PCE), flexibility-stability of organic solar cells (OSCs) are becoming one of the primary barriers for commercialization. This work shows that insulating poly(aryl ether) (PAE) resins have highly twisted-stiff backbones without any side chains, which possess excellent mechanical stability, thermal stability, and good compatibility with organic photovoltaic materials. After introducing 5 wt% PAE resin as supporting matrices into the bulk heterojunction (BHJ) layer, the device yields a high PCE of 16.13%. Importantly, the devices show impressive flexibility and improved stability with passivated morphology, such as PM6/Y6-based devices with 30 wt% PAE retains the PCE of 15.17% and exhibits enhanced 4.4-fold elongation at break (25.07%). This is the recorded stretchability of the BHJ layer for OSCs with PCE > 8%, and morphological changes during tensile deformation are first investigated by in situ wide-angle X-ray scattering measurements. The PAE matrices strategy exhibits good universality in the other four photovoltaic systems. These results demonstrate that heat-resistant PAE resins serve as supporting matrices with a tunneling effect into OSCs without sacrificing photovoltaic performance and simultaneously improve the flexibility and stability of devices, which can play an important role in promoting the development of stable and wearable electronics. |
