Small molecule BODIPY dyes as non-fullerene acceptors in bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaics

Symmetrical bis(fulvene) chromophores: model compounds for acceptor–donor–acceptor dye architectures

A facile method for synthesizing conjugated bis(fulvenes) demonstrates tailorable optical band gaps and serves as a model dye system for new organic electronic applications.

Organic soluble and uniform film forming oligoethylene glycol substituted BODIPY small molecules with improved hole mobility

A propeller type donor imparts organic solubility to oligoethylene glycol substituted conjugated small molecules. The oligoethylene glycol facilitates better intermolecular contacts and improved organic field effect transistor efficiency.

New conjugated molecular scaffolds based on [2,2]paracyclophane as electron acceptors for organic photovoltaic cells

Two conjugated molecules with a [2,2]paracyclophane framework were synthesized for solution-processed BHJ solar cells. WithP3HTas the donor, the best power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2.69% was obtained.
