Organic solar cells consist of blends of two or more semiconductors with different electronic structures, namely organic electron donors and acceptors. Recently, interest has increased towards non-fullerenes (NF) as the small-molecule acceptor. Organic cells benefit from the NF long wavelength absorption, which provides the blend with a broader coverage of the sun spectrum and thus, higher short-circuit currents. Moreover, devices containing NFs show high open-circuit voltages meaning that charge separation occurs efficiently even with small driving forces. In this work we study charge generation and recombination in a set of NF devices with efficiencies up to 13%. While all blends exhibit similar low voltage losses, the fill factors (FF) of the solar cells differ greatly, pointing to significant differences in geminate and/or non-geminate recombination. Time delayed collection field (TDCF) and bias assisted charge extraction (BACE) were used to disentangle these processes. Indeed, the devices with lower FF suffer from field-dependence of charge generation and faster bimolecular recombination. Altogether, the obtained recombination coefficients together with SCLC-measured mobilities allow reconstructing the FF, clearly pointing to these parameters as those to address for higher overall performance.
