Controlling Conformations of Conjugated Polymers and Small Molecules: The Role of Nonbonding Interactions

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of non-bonding interactions occurring between various heterocyclic and pendant atoms taken from a group of representative π-conjugated molecules were evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conformational Order in Aggregates of Conjugated Polymers

TL;DR: This work parametrized accurate classical force-fields and used these to compute the conformational and aggregation characteristics of single strands of common conjugated polymers, concluding that efficient organic photovoltaic devices span a range of polymer conformational classes, and suggesting that the solution-phase morphologies have far-reaching effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ring-fusion as a perylenediimide dimer design concept for high-performance non-fullerene organic photovoltaic acceptors

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of perylenediimide (PDI) dimers are evaluated as acceptors for organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells using a wide variety of physical and computational techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Next Breakthrough for Organic Photovoltaics

TL;DR: It is argued here that strategies based on microstructural/morphological control are at least as promising in any rational design strategy and research aimed at developing understanding-based strategies for more efficient optimization of an active layer microstructure and morphology are likely to be at leastAs fruitful.
