An easy, high-yield and atom-economic procedure of a C60 fullerene modification using a reaction of fullerene C60 with N-alkylisatins in the presence of tris(diethylamino)phosphine to form novel long-chain alkylindolinone-substituted methanofullerenes (AIMs) is described. Optical absorption, electrochemical properties and solubility of AIMs were studied. Poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT)/AIMs solar cells were fabricated and the effect of the AIM alkyl chain length and the P3HT:AIM ratio on the solar cell performance was studied. The power conversion efficiencies of about 2% were measured in the P3HT/AIM devices with 1:0.4 P3HT:AIM weight ratio for the AIMs with hexadecyl and dodecyl substituents. From the optical and AFM data, we suggested that the AIMs, in contrast to [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), do not disturb the P3HT crystalline domains. Moreover, the more soluble AIMs do not show a better miscibility with the P3HT crystalline phase.
本文描述了一种使用三(二乙氨基)膦与 N-烷基靛红与 C60 fullerene 反应,在温和条件下高产、原子经济性地对 C60 fullerene 进行修饰的方法,生成了新型长链烷基吲哚啉酮取代的富勒烯(AIMs)。研究了 AIMs 的光吸收、电化学性质和溶解度。制备了聚(3-己基噻吩-2,5-二基)(P3HT)/AIMs 太阳能电池,并研究了 AIM 烷基链长度和 P3HT:AIM 比例对太阳能电池性能的影响。对于具有十六烷基和十二烷基取代基的 AIMs,当 P3HT:AIM 重量比为 1:0.4 时,P3HT/AIM 器件的功率转换效率约为 2%。根据光学和 AFM 数据,我们推测与[6,6]-苯基-C61-丁酸甲酯(PCBM)不同,AIMs 不会干扰 P3HT 结晶区。此外,更具可溶性的 AIMs 与 P3HT 结晶相的混溶性不一定更好。
