The theoretical calculations are used to find that D-π-A-π-A style conjugated polymer PC-TBTBT is more efficient for solar cells application than the D-π-A analog PC-TBT because the D-π-A-π-A structure has a narrower band gap and higher molar absorption coefficient and redshift spectrum. Motivated by the theoretical prediction, 5,6-bis(octyloxy)-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole and 2,7-carbazole are adopted to synthesize the D-π-A-π-A style PC-TBTBT (M(w) = 31.1 kDa) and D-π-A analog PC-TBT (M(w) = 87.5 kDa) by Suzuki coupling reaction. Experimental results confirm that D-π-A-π-A PC-TBTBT-based solar cell shows a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 4.74% with high V(OC) of 0.99 V and enhanced J(SC) of 9.70 mA cm(-2). The PCE and J(SC) achieve improvements of 17% and 26%, respectively, compared to the D-π-A PC-TBT-based solar cell.
理论计算表明,D-π-A-π-A型共轭聚合物PC-TBTBT在太阳能电池应用中比D-π-A类似物PC-TBT更高效,因为D-π-A-π-A结构具有更窄的带隙、更高的摩尔吸收系数和红移光谱。受理论预测的启发,采用5,6-双(辛氧基)-2,1,3-苯并噻二唑和2,7-咔唑通过铃木偶联反应合成了D-π-A-π-A型PC-TBTBT(M(w)=31.1 kDa)和D-π-A类似物PC-TBT(M(w)=87.5 kDa)。实验结果证实,基于D-π-A-π-A PC-TBTBT的太阳能电池的功率转换效率(PCE)为4.74%,开路电压(V(OC))高达0.99 V,短路电流密度(J(SC))提高到9.70 mA cm(-2)。与基于D-π-A PC-TBT的太阳能电池相比,PCE和J(SC)分别提高了17%和26%。
