Solution-processed bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices have gained serious attention during the last few years and are established as one of the leading next generation photovoltaic technologies for low cost power production. This article reviews the OPV development highlights of the last two decades, and summarizes the key milestones that have brought the technology to today's efficiency performance of over 7%. An outlook is presented on what will be required to drive this young photovoltaic technology towards the next major milestone, a 10% power conversion efficiency, considered by many to represent the efficiency at which OPV can be adopted in wide-spread applications. With first products already entering the market, sufficient lifetime for the intended application becomes more and more critical, and the status of OPV stability as well as the current understanding of degradation mechanisms will be reviewed in the second part of this article.
近年来，溶液处理的体异质结有机光伏（OPV）器件受到了广泛关注，已成为低成本发电的下一代光伏技术之一。本文回顾了过去二十年中 OPV 的发展亮点，并总结了将该技术推向当今超过 7%的效率性能的关键里程碑。本文还展望了要将这项年轻的光伏技术推向下一个主要里程碑——被许多人认为是 OPV 可以广泛应用的效率——所需的条件。随着首款产品已经进入市场，对于预期应用而言，足够的使用寿命变得越来越重要，本文的第二部分将回顾 OPV 的稳定性现状和目前对降解机制的理解。
