AB  - The donor/acceptor interaction in non-fullerene organic photovoltaics leads to 
      the mixing domain that dictates the morphology and electronic structure of the 
      blended thin film. Initiative effort is paid to understand how these domain 
      properties affect the device performances on high-efficiency PM6:Y6 blends. 
      Different fullerenes acceptors are used to manipulate the feature of mixing 
      domain. It is seen that a tight packing in the mixing region is critical, which 
      could effectively enhance the hole transfer and lead to the enlarged and narrow 
      electron density of state (DOS). As a result, short-circuit current (J(SC) ) and 
      fill factor (FF) are improved. The distribution of DOS and energy levels strongly 
      influences open-circuit voltage (V(OC) ). The raised filling state of electron 
      Fermi level is seen to be key in determining device V(OC) . Energy disorder is 
      found to be a key factor to energy loss, which is highly correlated with the 
      intermolecular distance in the mixing region. A 17.53% efficiency is obtained for 
      optimized ternary devices, which is the highest value for similar systems. The 
      current results indicate that a delicate optimization of the mixing domain 
      property is an effective route to improve the V(OC) , J(SC) , and FF 
      simultaneously, which provides new guidelines for morphology control toward 
      high-performance organic solar cells.
