A bacteriochlorin-diketopyrrolopyrrole triad as a donor for solution-processed bulk heterojunction organic solar cells

2019

We have designed an A–π–D–π–A small-molecule triad consisting of a bacteriochlorin (BC) donor central core linked with two diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) acceptors via ethynyl bridges (BC-DPP-1). BC-DPP-1 has a narrow optical bandgap of 1.38 eV with highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels of −4.93 eV and −3.40 eV, respectively, and it was used as an electron donor along with [6,6]-phenyl-C71-butyric acid methyl ester (PC71BM) as an acceptor for solution-processed small-molecule organic solar cells. After optimizing the weight ratio between BC-DPP-1 and PC71BM and pyridine as a solvent additive and subsequent solvent vapor annealing using THF, an …

High-efficiency fullerene free ternary organic solar cells based with two small molecules as donor

2021

Abstract Herein, we have designed a ternary system comprising of two small molecules (B2 and B3), as donor and a narrow bandgap non-fullerene small molecule acceptor Y6. The chemical structures of B2 and B3 are close to each other but their absorption spectra are complementary with different energy levels. Using these small-molecules, a ternary organic solar cell was fabricated. The presence of B2 in the B3:Y6 blend increases the photon harvesting as well as also forms cascade energy level arrangement which benefits assisting the balancing between the dissociation of excitons into free charge carriers and their subsequent charge transfer between the two donors (B2 and B3) and the acceptor (…
