چکیده
The effects of fullerene bisadduct regioisomers on solar cell performance have been examined for the first time and the two substituent positions on C(60) have been found to have a large impact on the solar cell performance.

Dihydronaphthyl-based [60]fullerene bisadducts for efficient and stable polymer solar cells.
Dihydronaphthyl-based [60]fullerene bisadduct derivative, NC(60)BA, was synthesized at mild temperature in high yield. NC(60)BA not only possesses a LUMO energy level 0.16 eV higher than PC(61)BM but also has amorphous nature that can overcome thermal-driven crystallization. The fabricated P3HT:NC(60)BA-based polymer solar cells exhibit superior photovoltaic performance and thermal stability co...
متن کاملOne-pot selective synthesis of a fullerene bisadduct for organic solar cell applications.
A single isomer of fullerene bisadduct, PC61PF, was obtained from commercially available fullerene derivative, PC61BM, in one pot over two steps. The tether-directed remote functionalization approach provided a very simple and fast method to produce a single isomer of fullerene bisadduct with good yield and easy purification. Bulk heterojunction organic solar cells containing the bisadduct was ...
متن کاملMolecular packing and solar cell performance in blends of polymers with a bisadduct fullerene.
We compare the solar cell performance of several polymers with the conventional electron acceptor phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) to fullerenes with one to three indene adducts. We find that the multiadduct fullerenes with lower electron affinity improve the efficiency of the solar cells only when they do not intercalate between the polymer side chains. When they intercalate between...
متن کاملEnhanced performance of polymer solar cells by employing a ternary cascade energy structure.
We present a route to successfully tackle the two main limitations, low open circuit voltage (Voc) and limited short circuit-density (Jsc), of polymer solar cells (PSCs) based on poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) as an electron-donor. The indene-C60 bisadduct (ICBA) was selected as an electron acceptor to improve the open circuit voltage (Voc). The narrow band gap polymer poly[(4,8-bis-(2-ethylhexy...

We report the influence of different polymer purification procedures on the photovoltaic performance of bulk heterojunction solar cells formed from binary blends of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and fullerenes. Selective Soxhlet extractions and metal scavenging agents were used to remove residual monomer, magnesium salt by-products and catalyst from high-weight P3HT (Mw 121 kg/mol, PDI 1.8, RR ...
