Although encouraging progress is being made on spin-coated prototype cells, organic solar cells (OSCs) still face significant challenges, yet to be explored, for upscaling the multi-stacked photoactive layers in the construction of large-area modules. Herein, high-performance opaque and semitransparent organic solar modules are developed via a bilayer-merged-annealing (BMA)-assisted blade-coating strategy, achieving impressive efficiencies of 14.79% and 12.01% with respect to active area of 18.73 cm , which represent the best organic solar minimodules so far. It is revealed that the BMA strategy effectively resolves the de-wetting issues between polar charge transport layer solution and non-polar bulk heterojunction blends, hence improving the film coverage, along with electronic and electric contacts of multi-stacked photoactive layers. As result, organic solar modules coated under ambient conditions successfully retain the high-efficiency of small-area cells upon 312 times area scaling-up. Overall, this work provides a facile and effective method to fabricate high-performance organic solar modules under ambient conditions.
