The regioregularity and band gap of P3HT, an organic solar cell donor polymer, were improved. Oxidative coupling enhanced regioregularity, voltammetric p-doping broadened the optical absorption band and a molar mass increase reduced the band gap.

In this paper, a intermediate compound of solar cell materials and plant activator was reported. 4-hexyl aniline as the raw material, through a series of reactions to get a new compound E and characterized by 1H NMR and IR. This compound has excellent solubility in common solvents and as a promising candidate of synthesizing organic solar cell materials and plant activator.

For an efficient solution in the organic solar cell, the requirements may be largely as follows: development of organic semi-conductor material with a low energy band gap, enhancement of efficiency through morphology and surface control and an increase in efficiency utilizing tandem cell and plasmon technology. This study analyzed research trends in these three fields through a network analysis and mapping analysis using thesis information and patent information. It was shown that in case of the enhancement of efficiency through the development of semi-conductor material with an energy band gap on organic solar cell, morphology and surface control, there have been many ongoing studies since 2007. The enhancement technology for efficient utilization of tandem cell and plasmon technology has been frequently studied recently.

The synthesis and characterization of a new molecular dyad consisting of a benzodithiophene-based push-pull linked to a fullerene derivative through the use of the well-known Copper Azide-Alkyne Huisgen Cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction is reported herein. Once fully characterized at the molecular level, single component organic solar cells were fabricated to demonstrate photon-to-electron conversion, and therefore the design principle.
