Abstract: Abstract Benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b’]dithiophene (BDT) derivatives were evaluated as donor materials for the first time in vacuum-processed organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. Simple BDT derivatives coupled with thiophene (M1), 3-methylthiophene (M2), and 3-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophene (M3) were synthesized and characterized… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.surfin.2016.11.008
Abstract: Abstract Irreproducibility is a serious issue in thin film organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices, as smallest local inhomogeneities can change the entire behaviour of identically built devices without showing obvious failure. Inhomogeneities can occur at various… read more here.
