摘要
Two wide bandgap (WBG) conjugated polymers, P2T-DTTTAZ and P2T-DTTAZ, with donor--acceptor (D--A) structures was designed and synthesized, utilizing thieno[3,2-b]thiophene (TT) and/or thiophene (T) units as -bridge in conjugated polymer backbone. And, the wider optical band gap (E-g) of approximately 1.98eV for P2T-DTTTAZ and 2.09eV for P2T-DTTAZ were observed. Obviously, replacing T unit with larger conjugated plane TT unit as -bridges, P2T-DTTTAZ resulted in the red shifted absorption and the reduced band gap, compared with these of P2T-DTTAZ. The polymer solar cells (PSCs) with an inverted device structure based on P2T-DTTTAZ or P2T-DTTAZ as donor and [6,6] phenyl-C-61 butyric acid methyl ester (PC61BM) as acceptor were assembled and the photovoltaic properties were also investigated. The power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 1.57% for P2T-DTTTAZ and 1.25% for P2T-DTTAZ were obtained.
