The organic solar cell (OSC) heterojunction interface is where key photophysical processes such as charge separation and recombination occur. The molecular orientation at the interface is one of the key factors that determine the efficiency of solar cells. Due to the complex three-dimensional molecular arrangement on the interface and the lack of technology to measure local molecular orientation, it is challenging to determine the molecular orientation at the interface.
