Non-Fullerene Electron Acceptors for Use in Organic Solar Cells
The active layer in a solution processed organic photovoltaic device comprises a light absorbing electron donor semiconductor, typically a polymer, and an electron accepting fullerene acceptor. Although there has been huge effort targeted to optimize the absorbing, energetic, and transport properties of the donor material, fullerenes remain as the exclusive electron acceptor in all high perform...
متن کاملOrganic solar cells based on bowl-shaped small-molecules
The light absorption ability and morphology of the active components are two of the key factors that determine the energy conversion efficiency in organic solar cells (OSCs). Determining the relative importance of each of these aspects is decisive for the construction of more efficient OSCs. Here we introduce two p-extended derivatives of tetrathiafulvalene as electron donors for solution-proce...
متن کاملMolecular design of new π-conjugated materials based on thiadiazolothienopyazine for organic solar cells
In this paper and in order to guide the synthesis of novels materials with low band gaps, Theoretical study by using DFT method on six conjugated compound containing based on thiadiazolothienopyazine is reported. Different electron side groups were introduced to investigate their effects on the electronic structure. The theoretical knowledge of the HOMO and LUMO energy levels of the components ...
متن کاملConjugated polymer-based organic solar cells.
Photovoltaics (PVs) consists of the harvesting of energy from sunlight and its conversion into electrical power. This technology is being increasingly recognized as one of the key components in our future global energy scenario. Limited fossil fuel resources and steadily increasing costs of supplying fossil fuels to the market induce a natural limit where renewable energies will begin to kick i...
متن کاملRational Design of Diketopyrrolopyrrole-Based Small Molecules as Donating Materials for Organic Solar Cells
A series of diketopyrrolopyrrole-based small molecules have been designed to explore their optical, electronic, and charge transport properties as organic solar cell(OSCs) materials. The calculation results showed that the designed molecules can lower the band gap and extend the absorption spectrum towards longer wavelengths.The designed molecules own the large longest wavelength of absorption ...
