Fluorine Substituted Conjugated Polymer of Medium Band Gap Yields 7% Efficiency in Polymer-Fullerene Solar Cells
TL;DR: The resulting fluorinated polymer PBnDT-FTAZ outperforms poly(3-hexylthiophene), the current medium band gap polymer of choice, and thus is a viable candidate for use in highly efficient tandem cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rational Design of High Performance Conjugated Polymers for Organic Solar Cells
TL;DR: The research community has made great progress in the field of bulk heterojunction (BHJ) polymer solar cells since its inception in 1995 as mentioned in this paper and the power conversion efficiency (PCE) has increased from 1% in the 1990s to over 8% just recently.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of fluorinated benzothiadiazole as a structural unit for a polymer solar cell of 7 % efficiency.
TL;DR: F fluorine is the mostelectronegative element, with a Pauling electronegativity of 4.0, which is much larger than that of hydrogen (2.2), and these fluorine atoms often have a great influence on inter- and intramolecular interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of molecular orientation on organic bulk heterojunction solar cells
John R. Tumbleston,Brian Collins,Brian Collins,Liqiang Yang,Andrew C. Stuart,Eliot Gann,Wei Ma,Wei You,Harald Ade +8 more
TL;DR: X-ray scattering experiments indicate that the molecular orientation at the interfaces of bulk heterojunction organic solar cells influences the cells' fill factor and short-circuit current as discussed by the authors, which is very interesting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Solution-Processed Flexible Polymer Solar Cells with Silver Nanowire Electrodes
TL;DR: This study indicates that, with improved engineering of the nanowires/polymer interface, Ag NW electrodes can serve as a low-cost, flexible alternative to ITO, and thereby improve the economic viability and mechanical stability of OPVs.
