1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

While the emergence of oligomeric acceptors has improved the operational stability of polymer solar cells (PSCs), power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) and mechanical properties remain morphology-limited, necessitating tailored polymer donors. Using tethered dimeric acceptor (DY2) as a model acceptor, we demonstrate how strategic modification of the classical D18 donor enhances miscibility and thus device performance. Specially, we developed a new quinoxaline (TQx) building block and incorporated it into D18 via random copolymerization, producing D18-TQxn terpolymers (n = 5, 10, 15) with 5%-15% TQx proportion. The polar moieties in TQx enhance the surface energy of the terpolymers (improving thermodynamic miscibility) while also modulating the backbone conformation of D18, thereby tuning the crystallization kinetics. The optimal D18-TQx10 exhibits optimized miscibility with DY2, achieving a remarkable PCE of 20.21%, among the highest reported for binary oligomeric acceptor based devices. Furthermore, the D18-TQx10 blend exhibits significantly enhanced stretchability, with a crack-onset strain nearly three times greater than that of the pristine D18-based device. It also demonstrates good compatibility with a range of dimeric acceptors. This work establishes a dual-control strategy using a quinoxaline terpolymer to regulate thermodynamic miscibility and crystallization kinetics, addressing the key challenges of morphology control for high performance PSCs using oligomeric acceptors.
