Organic solar cells (OSCs) and organic‐inorganic metal halide perovskite solar cells (pero‐SCs) have been regarded as two promising photovoltaic technologies. The recent advances with power conversion efficiency over 10% and 20% have been realized in OSCs and pero‐SCs, respectively. The fullerene derivatives play important role as acceptor materials in OSCs and cathode buffer layer (CBL) materials in OSCs and pero‐SCs. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of recent progresses and perspectives of the functional fullerene derivatives as acceptor materials and CBLs for OSCs and pero‐SCs.
