InP nanocrystals were prepared by an economic chemical reaction. A very high density of surface states is found at 0.5 eV below the intrinsic conductive band edge. Mixing these InP nanocrystals with MEH-PPV, obtained the composite. Devices with structure ITO/composite(MEH-PPV)/Al were fabricated and investigated. Photocurrent spectra showed that the interface between a conjugated polymer and a semiconductor nanocrystal can be used to provide efficient charge separation for neutral excitons on both the ground states and excited ones. Incorporation of nanocrystals, the conductivity of diode shows large improvements.

Interest in high-spin organic materials is driven by opportunities to enable far-reaching fundamental science and develop technologies that integrate light element spin, magnetic, and quantum functionalities. Although extensively studied, the intrinsic instability of these materials complicates synthesis and precludes an understanding of how fundamental properties associated with the nature of the chemical bond and electron pairing in organic materials systems manifest in practical applications. Here, we demonstrate a conjugated polymer semiconductor, based on alternating cyclopentadithiophene and thiadiazoloquinoxaline units, that is a ground-state triplet in its neutral form. Electron paramagnetic resonance and magnetic susceptibility measurements are consistent with a high-to-low spin energy gap of 9.30 × 10−3 kcal mol−1. The strongly correlated electronic structure, very narrow bandgap, intramolecular ferromagnetic coupling, high electrical conductivity, solution processability, and robust stability open access to a broad variety of technologically relevant applications once thought of as beyond the current scope of organic semiconductors.

A new squaraine-based 2D conjugated polymer was developed as the donor material in polymer solar cells and dopant-free hole transporting material in inverted perovskite solar cells, reaching efficiencies of 6.35% and 18.29%, respectively.
