Side chain dynamics in semiconducting polymer MEH‐PPV
摘要： The characteristic nanoscale dynamics of the alkyl side groups in the light-emitting polymer poly[2-methoxy-5-(20-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene] have been investigated using quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS). The measurements were taken below the polymer’s glass transition (T ≤ Tg ’ 353 K), where the main backbone is in a rigid state and does not contribute to the broadening of the QENS signal. An analytical diffusion model consisting of a static term and two dynamical components, characterizing the flexible side groups, provide an excellent fit to the experimental data. The two observed dynamical processes are all localized in character, with no meaningful dependence on temperature. The faster process, with characteristic timescale of (cid:2)18 ps at room temperature (RT), can be linked to the average mobility of the terminal protons of the alkyl chain, while the slower process, with characteristic timescale of (cid:2)170 ps at RT, to those protons at the other end of the alkyl chain, closest to the backbone. While the fraction of mobile protons contributing to the QENS signal increases with increasing temperature, the characteristic timescale and confining volume within which the protons are able to move locally depend chiefly on the polymer conformational state. ? 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Polytetrafluoroethylenea??intercalated MXene membranes with good photothermal performance for enhanced laser ignition
摘要： Photothermal effect has been widely used in many areas such as cancer therapy, photothermal energy harvesting, and laser ignition. However, exploring reliable and efficient free-standing energy converter for enhancing the photothermal performance is still a challenge. Herein, free-standing membrane based on two-dimensional MXene (Ti3C2) nanosheets and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) was fabricated and characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry, which demonstrated a drastic temperature rise by laser irradiation and was further used as energy converter for enhancing the photothermal performance of laser ignition. Furthermore, the initiating power of the laser initiator can be largely reduced by adding a thin layer of MXene/PTFE membrane above the B/KNO3 cylinder. This work can give great promise for MXene-based membranes as the laser energy converter for reducing the initiating energy and promote the development of laser initiators with low initiating energy.

Effect of chlorination and fluorination of benzothiadiazole on the performance of polymer solar cells
摘要： In order to explore the effects of chlorine and fluorine on photophysical properties and the differences, in this work, we synthesized five new polymers, P1–P5, in which benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b]dithiophene as the electron donating and benzothiadiazole as electron withdrawing. Analysis of these five polymers showed that the introduction of Cl and F atoms can deeper the highest occupied molecular orbital of these polymers and enhance the absorption of light by the species, thereby improving Voc and Jsc. Chlorination has a stronger ability to reduce energy levels and broaden the absorption spectrum compared to fluorination. Among them, P2 showed an efficiency of 4.08% with Jsc of 11.28 mA/cm2, Voc of 0.79 V, and fill factor (FF) of 0.45. Since chlorination is easier than fluorination in terms of synthesis, it is advantageous for practical applications. Therefore, we think that chlorination should not be ignored when designing high efficiency photovoltaic materials, especially when their fluorinated counterparts have proven to have good properties.

Effect of incorporating different polyanilinea??surface modified nanosilica content into polyurethanea??based quasia??solida??state electrolyte for dyea??sensitized solar cells
摘要： Polyaniline-surface modified nanosilica (S-PANi) was incorporated into polyurethane (PU) to form a polymer matrix able to entrap liquid electrolyte and to function as a quasi-solid state electrolyte (QSE) in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). Nanosilica was first synthesized via sol–gel technique and was post modified with aniline to form S-PANi. The effects of introducing different S-PANi content (5, 10, 15, and 20 wt%) on the nanoparticle distribution, surface morphology, surface porosity, thermal stability, and the structure of the PU matrix were analyzed using transmitted and reflected light microscopes, TGA and X-ray powder diffraction. Additionally, polymer matrix absorptivity, conductivity, and ion diffusion of the formulated QSEs were investigated by using a digital analytical balance, the AC impedance method, and cyclic voltammetry. Lastly, all of the formulated quasi-solid-state electrolytes were applied for use in DSSCs wherein their charge recombination, photovoltaic performance, and lifespan were measured. The quasi-solid-state electrolyte based on 15 wt% S-PANi (PU-15%S-PANi) exhibited the highest light-to-energy conversion efficiency, namely 3.17%, with an open circuit voltage of 708 mV, a short circuit current of 4.13 mA cm?2, and a fill factor of 0.65.
