摘要

超薄柔性有机太阳能电池(ultrathin and flexible organic solar cells

UF-OSCs)凭借其卓越的柔韧性及高功率重量比，在可穿戴电子设备、柔性显示技术等领域展现出巨大的应用潜力. 然而，UF-OSCs的光电转换效率(PCE)与刚性器件相比，仍存在较大的提升空间. 为了提高UF-OSCs的性能，国内外研究人员从器件的材料及结构等方面展开了深入研究. 其中，超薄柔性透明电极(UFTE)作为器件组成的关键部分，其性能对电池的整体效率和稳定性有着直接影响. 本文以UFTE为切入点，结合界面层和器件结构工程等多种策略，对UF-OSCs的最新研究进展进行了详细分析. 此外，还简要介绍了大面积UF-OSCs的潜在应用. 最后，提出了UF-OSCs进一步发展所面临的挑战，并展望了其在柔性电源领域的应用前景.

Abstract

Ultrathin and flexible organic solar cells (UF-OSCs) demonstrate great potential in applications such as wearable electronics and flexible display technology due to their flexibility and a high power-to-weight ratio. However

the power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of UF-OSCs still lag behind those of their corresponding rigid counterparts

which remains the most critical factor hindering the commercialization process of UF-OSCs. In order to enhance the performance of UF-OSCs

researchers worldwide have carried out in-depth research on the materials and device structures. Ultrathin and flexible transparent electrode (UFTE) is a key component of the device

and its performance has a direct impact on the overall efficiency and stability of the device. This review takes UFTE as the starting point and combines various strategies such as interface layer and device structure engineering to conduct a detailed analysis of the latest research progress of UF-OSCs. Moreover

the potential applications of large-area UF-OSCs are briefly introduced. Finally

the challenges faced by the further development of UF-OSCs are proposed

and its application prospects in the field of flexible power sources are prospected.
