The micro-morphology and molecular stacking play a key role in determining the charge transport process and nonradiative energy loss, thus impacting the performances of organic solar cells(OSCs). To address this issue, a non-fullerene acceptor PhC6-IC-F with alkylbenzene side-chain, possessing optimized molecular stacking, complementary absorption spectra and forming a cascade energy level alignment in the PM6:BTP-eC9 blend, is introduced as guest acceptor to improve efficiency of ternary OSCs. The bulky phenyl in the side-chain can regulate crystallinity and optimizing phase separation between receptors in ternary blend films, resulting in the optimal phase separations in the ternary films. As a result, high efficiencies of 18.33% as photovoltaic layer are obtained for PhC6-IC-F-based ternary devices with excellent fill factor(FF) of 78.92%. Impressively, the ternary system produces a significantly improved open circuit voltage(V_(oc)) of 0.857 V compared with the binary device,contributing to the reduced density of trap states and suppressed non-radiative recombination result in lower energy loss. This work demonstrates an effective approach for adjusting the aggregation, molecular packing and fine phase separation morphology to increase V_(oc) and FF, paving the way toward high-efficiency OSCs.

Quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators, with their unique helical edge states where counterpropagating edge channels possess opposite spins, have attracted broad interest across various fields. While the exact quantization of spin Hall conductance (SHC) is elusive in realistic materials due to intrinsic spin mixing effects, the near quantization, as a compromised definition of the QSH effect, cannot be captured by rigorous topological invariants. In this Letter, we present a universal symmetry indicator for diagnosing the QSH effect in realistic materials, termed spin U(1) quasisymmetry. Such a symmetry eliminates the first-order spin-mixing perturbation and thus protects the near-quantization of SHC, applicable to time-reversal-preserved cases with either Z2=1 or Z2=0, as well as time-reversal-broken scenarios. We propose that spin U(1) quasisymmetry is hidden in the subspace spanned by the doublets with unquenched orbital momentum and emerges when SOC is present, which can be realized in 19 crystallographic point groups. Our theory is applied to identify previously overlooked QSH phases such as time-reversal-preserved even spin Chern phase and time-reversal-broken phase, as exemplified by twisted bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides, monolayer RuBr3, and monolayer FeSe. Our work provides a comprehensive symmetry-based framework for understanding the QSH effect and significantly expands the material pool for the screening of exemplary material candidates.
