"equations derived from the detailed balance principle... 3rd component affects non-radiative recombination voltage loss via thermal population 3rd component related charge-transfer and local-exciton states... plan to screen some third components according to the design rules proposed in this work to practically reduce the voltage losses and thus improve the performance of the ternary organic solar cells"
