Background
The organic solar cell is used as a renewable energy source, and has the advantages of light weight, low price, large-area preparation and the like. But currently cannot be commercialized due to its low energy conversion efficiency (PCE). Under the continuous efforts of global scientists, the energy conversion efficiency of the single organic solar cell device in the laboratory is more than 18 percent at present. Recently, research finds that small molecule donors have the advantages of single structure, easiness in purification, high mobility, adjustable energy level, excellent solubility and the like compared with polymer donors.
Compared with other donor structure central nuclei, Benzodithiophene (BDT) has a large rigid plane conjugated structure, can improve the delocalization capability of pi electrons and pi-pi interaction between molecules, is easy to chemically modify a BDT unit, is convenient to synthesize, has high photoelectric efficiency, and is a well-known electron-rich molecule. Therefore, the introduction of thiophene into BDT causes red shift of the absorption spectrum, resulting in an increase in the absorption wavelength and an increase in Jsc and FF.
Fluorine atoms are an effective electron withdrawing group, have strong electronegativity and small size. The strong electronegativity of fluorine atoms can reduce HOMO and LUMO simultaneously without causing severe steric hindrance. The small size gives the molecular framework greater planarity and facilitates charge transport. The introduction of fluorine atoms on the central core allows it to have a relatively low peak occupied molecular orbital and high electron mobility. In addition, the introduction of fluorine enhances the non-covalent interaction and intermolecular aggregation of fluorine and hydrogen sulfide, thereby improving the film morphology.
4, 4-dihexyl-Dithienocyclopentadiene (DTC) and 4, 4-diethyl-Dithienosilene (DTS) are used as pi-bridges, good Internal Charge Transfer (ICT) can be provided due to the basic characteristics of good fused ring structure, electron-rich groups and the like, and strong non-covalent interaction (H, F, S, F, S, N) exists in the molecule, so that the charge transfer is facilitated. 4, 4-dihexyl-dithienocyclopentadiene and 4, 4-diethyl-dithienosilene are used as donors with less rich electrons, and a unit with less rich electrons is used as a pi bridge, so that the Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO) of a donor molecule can be reduced, and the open-circuit voltage (Voc) of the small-molecule donor-fullerene heterojunction (BHJ) solar cell is increased
Butynoxide is widely used as an electron withdrawing group in organic solar cells, rhodanine based organic solar cells have higher open circuit voltages and they have well matched energy levels and optical absorption with the well known P3HT donor, good phase separated film morphology and front dominant crystallinity and can suppress charge recombination. The introduction of 3-butyl rhodanine greatly enhances the light absorption capability of the donor, so that higher Jsc is obtained.
An increase in the number of terminal carbon atoms can improve the solubility of the material, but also can affect intermolecular packing. The packing of molecules becomes disordered the longer the length of the alkyl chain. Alkyl chains of suitable length relative to longer alkyl chains also improve the bulk order of the molecule while ensuring solubility.
