Organic photovoltaics’ new renaissance: advances toward roll-to-roll manufacturing of non-fullerene acceptor organic photovoltaics

Non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) have recently breathed new life into organic photovoltaic (OPVs), achieving breakthrough photovoltaic conversion efficiencies. Unlike conventional fullerene acceptors, they offer strong levels of tunability and solution-processibility that allow them to be easily explo...
