For the purpose of developing flexible organic photovoltaic devices, we have fabricated two flexible devices using 5-formyl- 2,2′:5′,2″:5″,2′″-quaterthiophene (4T-CHO), 5-formyl-2,2′:5′, 2″:5″,2′″:...For the purpose of developing flexible organic photovoltaic devices, we have fabricated two flexible devices using 5-formyl- 2,2′:5′,2″:5″,2′″-quaterthiophene (4T-CHO), 5-formyl-2,2′:5′, 2″:5″,2′″:5′″,2″″-quinquethiophene (5T-CHO) and 3,4,9,10-perylenetertracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA). The PET-ITO/4T-CHO/PTCDA/A1 device has an open circuit voltage (Voc) of 1.56 V, photoelectric conversion efficiency of 0.77%. The PET-ITO/5T-CHO/PTCDA/A1 device has a Voc of 1.70 V, photoelectric conversion efficiency of 0.84%. The two flexible devices have high Voc (1.56 and 1.70 V). It is possible that intermolecular hydrogen bonding between -CHO group of nT-CHO and carboxylic dianhydride of PTCDA contributes to enhancing the efficiency by promoting interfacial electron transfer and eliminating the subconducting band trap sites.展开更多

It was found that the cyano and the vinyl group could increase fluorescence yield in solution, while the formyl and carboxyl group could decrease energy gap. With increasing the chain length of thiophene ring, the oxidation potential could be decreased.展开更多
