TL;DR: A high molecular weight donor-acceptor conjugated polymer is synthesized using the Suzuki polycondensation method and a single-junction bulk-heterojunction solar cell is fabricated giving a power conversion efficiency of 9.4% using a fullerene-modified ZnO interlayer at the cathode contact.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene in organic electronics
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis, properties, and functions of HBC derivatives are presented with focus on work published in the last five years, focusing on the synthesis and properties of the HBC molecules.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, Stille coupling polymerization conditions were optimized to achieve high molecular weight polymers (number-average molecular weight, Mn, up to 139 kg mol−1).
Journal ArticleDOI
Liquid crystalline hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene-diketopyrrolopyrrole organic dyes for photovoltaic applications
Wallace W. H. Wong,Jegadesan Subbiah,Sreenivasa Reddy Puniredd,Balaji Purushothaman,Wojciech Pisula,Nigel Kirby,Klaus Müllen,David J. Jones,Andrew B. Holmes +8 more
TL;DR: A series of liquid crystalline organic dyes consisting of fluorenyl hexa-perihexabenzocoronene (FHBC) and diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) units was synthesized and characterised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of electron-poor hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronenes
TL;DR: The oxidative cyclodehydrogenation of electron-poor arenes was achieved using DDQ-CF( 3)SO(3)H resulting in hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronenes with electron withdrawing Br, F and CF(3), which will lead to their expansion into a new class of electron transport materials.
