Conjugated anthracene derivatives as donor materials for bulk heterojunction solar cells: olefinic versus acetylenic spacers.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Substituting olefinic for acetylenic pi-spacers in anthracene-based conjugated semiconductor donors leads to appreciable increases in the power conversion efficiencies of the resulting bulk heterojunction solar cells.

New acceptorep-porphyrinep-acceptor systems for solution- processed small molecule organic solar cells
Two new conjugated acceptoredonoreacceptor (Aep-Dep-A) compounds having a Zn-porphyrin acting as donor and linked by ethynylenes to one or two units of thienylenevinylene and capped by dicyanovinylene groups as acceptor units have been synthesized and their photophysical and electrochemical properties were investigated. These compounds were used as donor materials and PC61BM and PC71BM were use...
متن کاملActive Layer Materials for Organic Solar Cells
Organic photovoltaic cell (OPV) has emerged as a new competitor to inorganic material-based solar cells, due to its potential application in large area, printable, and flexible solar panels. In particular, OPV cells with bulk heterojunction architecture (BHJ), in which the photoactive layer consists of a bicontinuous blend of an electron donor and an electron acceptor, has allowed power convers...
متن کاملDevelopment of novel conjugated donor polymers for high-efficiency bulk-heterojunction photovoltaic devices.
Solar cells are one attractive method for harnessing inexhaustible clean energy from the sun. Organic photovoltaic technology is emerging as a potential competitor to silicon-based photovoltaic cells (PVCs), and their power conversion efficiencies (PCE) can now exceed 6%. Polymeric bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) PVCs, whose photoactive layer is composed of a blend of bicontinuous and interpenetratin...
متن کاملMolecular helices as electron acceptors in high-performance bulk heterojunction solar cells
Despite numerous organic semiconducting materials synthesized for organic photovoltaics in the past decade, fullerenes are widely used as electron acceptors in highly efficient bulk-heterojunction solar cells. None of the non-fullerene bulk heterojunction solar cells have achieved efficiencies as high as fullerene-based solar cells. Design principles for fullerene-free acceptors remain unclear ...

Two thiophene-phenylene semiconductors, bis(2-phenylethynyl) end-substituted oligothiophenes (diPhAc-nTs, n = 2, 3), were synthesized and studied with respect to their optical, electrochemical, structural and electrical properties. The optical and electrochemical properties of the oligomers in solution were investigated by UV-vis absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopies, and cyclic volta...
