General description

PTB7 is a semiconducting polymer used in organic photovoltaics with an energy efficiency of 9.15%. It can act as an electron donor with narrow optical band gaps and excellent π-π conjugation while forming a nanocomposite with fullerenes.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product belongs to Enabling category of greener alternatives thus aligns with "Design for energy efficency". Hole transport organic materials allow perfect energy level alignment with the absorber layer and therefore efficient charge collection, are prone to degradation in ambient conditions.Click here for more information.

Application

High-Efficiency Organic Solar Cells (OPVs)
OPV Device Structure: ITO/PEDOT:PSS/PTB7 :PC71BM/Ca/Al
  • JSC = 14.9 mA/cm2
  • VOC = 0.75 V
  • FF = 0.69
  • PCE = 7.4%
It is majorly used as an active layer that enhances the overall performance by increasing the light absorption and improving the electron mobility of polymeric solar cells (PSCs).

The development of high-performance conjugated organic molecules and polymers has received widespread attention in industrial and academic research.

Organic photovoltaics (OPVs) represent a low-cost, lightweight, and scalable alternative to conventional solar cells. While significant progress has been made in the development of conventional bulk heterojunction cells, new approaches are required to achieve the performance and stability necessary to enable commercially successful OPVs.

Professor Chen (Nankai University, China) and his team explain the strategies behind their recent record-breaking organic solar cells, reaching a power conversion efficiency of 17.3%.
