Abstract

Various low ratios of triplet iridium complexes (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2.5, and 5 mol%) are conjugated to the backbone of the famous champion donor polymer PTB7. At the same conditions, the power conversion efficiency for polymer containing 1% of Ir increases by 45%, 39%, and 31% in three batches of devices compared with control Ir-free PTB7.
