研究目的
To design and synthesize low band gap conjugated polymers for high-performance polymer solar cells (PSCs) by incorporating electron-withdrawing units and bi(thienylenevinylene) side chains.
研究成果
The synthesized polymers PBDT-TVT-ID and PBDT-TVT-DTNT exhibited good thermal stability, broad absorption spectra, and deep HOMO energy levels, leading to photovoltaic devices with PCEs of 4.09% and 5.44%, respectively. The study demonstrates the potential of BDT units with TVT conjugated side chains for high-performance PSCs.
研究不足
The study is limited by the solubility and phase separation issues of the polymers, which affect the film morphology and, consequently, the photovoltaic performance.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection
The study involved the synthesis of two donor-acceptor (D-A) typed copolymers using Stille-coupling polymerization. The polymers were characterized for thermal stability, optical properties, and photovoltaic performance.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources
The polymers PBDT-TVT-ID and PBDT-TVT-DTNT were synthesized and characterized using NMR, TGA, UV-Vis absorption spectra, CV, and AFM.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials
Bruker DRX 400 spectrometer, TGA 2050 thermal analysis system, UV-1800 spectrophotometer, CHI600D electro-chemical workstation, MFP-3D-SA AFM.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow
Polymers were synthesized via Stille-coupling polymerization, characterized, and used to fabricate photovoltaic devices with ITO/PFN/polymers:PC71BM/MoO3/Ag structure.
5:Data Analysis Methods
Data were analyzed using GPC, CV, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and AFM to determine molecular weights, energy levels, absorption spectra, and surface morphologies.
