A series of low band gap copolymers consisting of electron-accepting pyrazino[2,3-g]quinoxaline (PQx) and an electron-donating indolo[3,2-b]carbazole and thiophene units have been designed and synthesized by Stille coupling polymerization. Their optical and electrical properties could also be facilely fine-modulated for photovoltaic application by adjusting the donor/acceptor ratios. UV-vis mea...
متن کاملDesigning of novel donor-acceptor-donor framework based low band gap copolymers using an artificial intelligence approach
Donor-acceptor strategy is employed for designing low band gap hetero-aromatic copolymers using an artificial intelligence mechanism, viz., particle swarm optimization. The investigated structures include hetero-aromatic donor moieties, viz., pyrrole, thiophene and furan in combination with carbonyl and dicyanomethylene acceptor groups. The electronic properties of all the possible donor and ac...
متن کاملDonor-pi-acceptor conjugated copolymers for photovoltaic applications: tuning the open-circuit voltage by adjusting the donor/acceptor ratio.
A class of new conjugated copolymers containing a donor (thiophene)-acceptor (2-pyran-4-ylidene-malononitrile) was synthesized via Stille coupling polymerization. The resulting copolymers were characterized by 1H NMR, elemental analysis, GPC, TGA, and DSC. UV-vis spectra indicated that the increase in the content of the thiophene units increased the interaction between the polymer main chains t...
متن کاملDithienothiophene (DTT)-based dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells: synthesis of 2,6-dibromo-DTT.
A one-pot synthesis of 2,6-dibromodithieno[3,2-b;2',3'-d]thiophene (dibromo-DTT, 4) was developed. A key step was bromodecarboxylation of DTT-2,6-dicarboxylic acid, obtained by saponification of the diester 1. The donor-acceptor dye DAHTDTT (13), based on a central 2,6-bis[2'-(3'-hexylthienyl)]dithieno[3,2-b;2',3'-d]thiophene core (9), was prepared and incorporated in a dye-sensitized solar cel...
متن کاملA lactam building block for efficient polymer solar cells.
A new lactam acceptor unit, [7,7'-bidithieno[3,2-b:2',3'-d]pyridine]-5,5'(4H,4'H)-dione (BDTP), was developed. A D-A copolymer PThBDTP using BDTP as the acceptor unit and thiophene as the donor unit was synthesized. PThBDTP:PC71BM solar cells gave a decent PCE of 9.13% with a V(oc) of 0.96 V. PThBDTP is one of the few D-A copolymers with PCEs of over 9%.
