What is this collection about?

All-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs) incorporate a polymer donor and a polymer acceptor in their active layer and are characterized by their enhanced mechanical properties, particularly in terms of flexibility and durability. Improving their efficiency and advancing towards commercialization relies on the design of polymer electron donor and acceptors with desirable properties — such as enhanced charge motility, morphological stability and synthetic accessibility — as well as on electrode and interface engineering more generally.

This Collection welcomes research that showcases advances in polymer design, understanding of structure–property relationships, and interface engineering for all-PSCs. 

Why is this collection important?

This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy and aims to highlight advances that contribute to the development of efficient and sustainable solar energy technologies.

Why submit to a collection?

Collections like this one help promote high-quality science. They are led by In-House Editors who are experts in their fields and supported by a dedicated team of Commissioning Editors and Managing Editors at Springer Nature. Collection manuscripts typically see higher citations, downloads, and Altmetric scores, and provide a one-stop-shop on a cutting-edge topic of interest.

Who is involved?

Communications Chemistry is edited by both in-house professional editors and Editorial Board Members.
