Non-Fused Nonfullerene Acceptors Based on Macrocyclic Sidechain Substituted Benzene Core for Efficient Organic Solar Cells
摘要
Abstract
A series of non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) based on macrocyclic sidechain substituted benzene cores were developed. These cores have used eight, ten or twelve carbon atoms to connect two para-oxygen atoms on the benzene, and could endow NFAs with almost coplanar backbone and strong electron-donating ability. Further, these out-of-plane macrocyclic side chain can suppress over-aggregation of NFAs for good solubility and optimal π-π stacking. After optimization, organic solar cells based on the D18-Cl-B with two different NFA achieved decent PCE of 7.10 and 6.83%.
