研究目的
Investigating the significance of five membered heterocycles in fine tuning the HOMO-LUMO gap of simple donor-acceptor systems as organic solar cell materials using a DFT approach.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated that substituting different five-membered heterocycles in a simple donor-acceptor system can significantly reduce the HOMO-LUMO gap, suggesting their potential application in the development of organic solar cells. The aromaticity and charge delocalization contributed by the heterocycles were key factors in tuning the electronic properties.
