Wide-bandgap copolymers based on fused-ring acceptor units are ideal donor materials due to their low-lying HOMO levels, high hole mobilities and complementary light absorption to nonfullerene acceptors[18-25]. Currently, high-performance donors with 18%power conversion efficiencies(PCEs) belong to this type.展开更多

Its single crystal structure indicates enhanced planarity compared with the carbon-bridged analogue indacenodithiophene(IDT). Owing to the stronger electron-donating capability of CO5 than IDT, CO5-based donor and acceptor materials show narrower bandgaps. A donor-acceptor(D-A) copolymer donor(PCO5TPD) and an A-D-A nonfullerene acceptor(CO5IC) demonstrated higher performance than IDT-based counterparts, PIDTTPD and IDTIC, respectively. The better performance of CO5-based materials results from their stronger light-harvesting capability and higher charge-carrier mobilities.展开更多
