Abstract We investigated the extension effects of side-group and backbone of a push-pull conjugated polymer (CP) on ternary-blend organic solar cells (OSCs) containning PC71BM and a non-fullerene acceptor (NFA). The photovoltaic properties of the OSCs prepared with the side-group (PBTBT-OTT) and backbone (PDTBT-OTT) extended CPs are strongly dependent on the additional free carriers (FCs) that are generated from the NFA. Especially, PDTBT-OTT induced the ultrafast charge-transfer to PC71BM due to the efficient intrachain energy-transfer, which resulted in the unique formation-pathway of the additonal FCs in the NFA domains. This phenomenon enhanced photocurrent of the ternary-blend NFA OSC with PDTBT-OTT by complementing the nongeminate recombination losses between PDTBT-OTT and the acceptors.
