研究目的
To synthesize and characterize bis(dicyanomethylene)-substituted quinoidal terthiophenes with full benzene annelation for use as non-fullerene acceptors in organic solar cells.
研究成果
The introduction of full benzene annelation to quinoidal terthiophenes successfully suppressed biradical character, leading to materials with potential as non-fullerene acceptors in organic solar cells. The study demonstrates the tunability of electronic structures in quinoidal oligothiophenes for electronic applications.
研究不足
The low solubility of B3TQ-C4 limited accurate determination of molar extinction coefficients. The power conversion efficiency of the organic solar cells was relatively low at 1.39%.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The synthesis involved a retro-Diels?Alder reaction as the key step to achieve full benzene annelation.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Quinoidal terthiophenes with varying levels of benzene annelation were synthesized and characterized.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Instruments included X-ray diffractometer, UV?vis spectrophotometer, cyclic voltammetry setup, and thermogravimetric analyzer.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Detailed synthesis steps, characterization methods, and device fabrication for organic solar cells were followed.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
UV?vis spectra, cyclic voltammetry, and thermogravimetric analysis data were analyzed to determine properties.
