A “face-on” molecular orientation is essential for photovoltaic materials with efficient vertical carrier transport, but understanding how the molecular structures control their orientations remains challenging.
The photovoltaic performance of polymer solar cells (PSCs) depends largely on the ordering structures (i.e., backbone orientation and crystallinity) of the active-layer molecules. It is crucial to make the molecules adopt a face-on orientation for efficient vertical carrier transport.
However, there are few reports on the effective control of crystal orientation in perovskite polycrystalline films. This is because the rapid crystallization process of perovskite polycrystalline films makes it difficult to be accurately controlled compared to the slow growth of perovskite single crystals in solution.
It is crucial to make the molecules adopt a face-on orientation for efficient vertical carrier transport. However, the driving force that directs face-on or edge-on orientation is not yet clear, and the control of molecular orientation by side-chain engineering remains challenging.
