摘要
Two n-type conjugated D-A copolymers with perylene diimide (PDI) as acceptor unit and benzodithiophene (BDT) as donor unit, P(PDI-BDT-Ph) and P(PDI-BDT-Th), were synthesized and applied as electron acceptor in all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs). P(PDI-BDT-Ph) and P(PDI-BDT-Th) films exhibit similar absorption spectra in the visible region with optical bandgap (E-g) of 1.65 eV and 1.55 eV respectively, and the identical LUMO level of -3.89 eV. The all-PSCs based on P(PDI-BDT-Ph) as acceptor and PTB7-Th as donor demonstrated a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 4.31% with a short-circuit current density (J(sc)) of 11.94 mA cm(-2), an open-circuit voltage (V-oc) of 0.81 V, and a fill factor (FF) of 44.49%. By contrast, the corresponding all-PSCs with P(PDI-BDT-Th) as acceptor showed a relative lower PCE of 3.58% with a Jsc of 11.36 mA cm(-2), V-oc of 0.79 V, and FF of 40.00%. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.
