摘要
A series of organic chromophores (ITPD1-ITPD6) via 1,4-dihydropyridine core was designed for organic solar cells (OSC) by modifying the terminal end-capped acceptor units. Quantum chemical investigations were conducted at the M06/6-311G(d,p) functional to collect significant insights about their electronic, structural, chemical, and photonic properties. These findings disclosed that all designed molecules exhibited lower band gaps (2.481-2.765 eV), with redshift spectra (574.92-644.97 nm) as compared to ITPR (2.827 eV and 561.47 nm) due to the extended conjugation and strong electron-withdrawing nature of acceptor groups. The open circuit voltage (Voc) of all studied molecules was computed using donor polymer PBDB-T. Among all, ITPD4 possesses the smallest band gap (2.481 eV), red-shifted lambda max (644.974 nm) and lowest Voc(1.425 V) value due to the incorporation of highly electronegative -NO2 unit. Hence, all these insights uncover the potential of designed molecules for photovoltaic applications.
