研究目的
Investigating the effect of pendant group engineering on naphthodithiophene-based small molecule donors for achieving efficient organic solar cells with high fill factor.
研究成果
The hexyl-substituted NDT molecule (NDT-Hex) demonstrated superior morphological tunability, leading to high fill factors and power conversion efficiencies in both fullerene and non-fullerene based solar cells. This work provides a feasible method for achieving efficient organic solar cells with high fill factor through pendant group engineering.
研究不足
The study is limited to NDT-based small molecule donors and their blends with PC71BM and NBDTP-Fout. The morphological tunability and its impact on device performance may vary with other material systems.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Three NDT-based small molecules with different substituents were synthesized via Stille-coupling. Their photovoltaic effects were investigated through optical absorption, electronic energy levels, blend morphology, carrier mobility, and photovoltaic performance.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study focused on three NDT molecules with hexyl-, null, and fluorene substituents. Data were collected from UV-vis absorption spectra, cyclic voltammetry, thermogravimetric analysis, and device performance measurements.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
AFM for morphology analysis, UV-vis spectrometer for optical absorption, cyclic voltammetry for electrochemical energy levels, and solar simulators for photovoltaic performance.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The molecules were synthesized, characterized, and then used to fabricate BHJ solar cells. The devices were optimized through solvent vapor annealing (SVA) and electron transporting layer (ETL) selection.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The performance of solar cells was analyzed through J-V curves, EQE measurements, and charge carrier mobility measurements via SCLC method.
