In this work, we improve the performance and air stability of inverted polymer solar cells (PSCs) using a combination of a LiF-modified ITO cathode and a MoO3/AgAl alloy anode. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of PSCs with the AgAl contact reaches 9.4%, which is higher than that of the cells with a Ag (8.8%) or Al electrode (7.6%). This improvement is primarily attributed to the formation of thin AlOx at MoO3/AgAl interface, preventing the Ag diffusion and improving the hole tunneling probability and built-in potential across the active layer in the cells. The PCE of AgAl-based PSCs is further increased to up to 10.3% through the incorporation of an ultrathin LiF-modified ITO, due to an improvement in electron collection. These devices exhibit a superior stability as compared to the cells with Ag and Al contacts. The PCE of the AgAl-based cells without encapsulation remains 78% of its original value after the cells were aged for 380 days in air.
