New small molecules with thiazolothiazole and benzothiadiazole acceptors for solution-processed organic solar cells

Abstract

A new thiazolothiazole based small molecule (DTTz-DTBTT) has been designed and synthesized. The small molecule exhibited good thermal stability and excellent solubility. The optical gap of DTTz-DTBTT was estimated to be 1.65 eV. The solution-processed photovoltaic device based on DTTz-DTBTT and PC61BM exhibited a power conversion efficiency of 1.64%.
