Over 7% photovoltaic efficiency of a semicrystalline donor-acceptor polymer synthesized via direct arylation polymerization

Direct arylation polymerization enables “greener” synthesis of a high-performance semicrystalline π-conjugated polymer, poly[(2,5-bis(2-hexyldecyloxy)phenylene)-alt-(5,6-difluoro-4,7-di(thiophene-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole) (PPDT2FBT). The resulting polymers show a hole mobility of 4.7 × 10−3 c...

Description
Summary:Direct arylation polymerization enables “greener” synthesis of a high-performance semicrystalline π-conjugated polymer, poly[(2,5-bis(2-hexyldecyloxy)phenylene)-alt-(5,6-difluoro-4,7-di(thiophene-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole) (PPDT2FBT). The resulting polymers show a hole mobility of 4.7 × 10−3 cm2 V−1 s−1 in bottom-gate/top-contact field effect transistors, and a power conversion efficiency over 7% in organic bulk-heterojunction solar cells.
