The polymer was tested in bulk heterojunction solar cells with [6,6]-phenyl-C₆₁-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) acceptor at various weight ratios. This study showed that the power conversion efficiencies (PCE) remained independent of the weight ratio of polymer/PCBM ranging from 1:1 to 1:12. This independence was interpreted as an effect of the presence of low molecular weight oligomers and terthiophene monomer which acted as plasticizers in the solar cell devices. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and tapping mode atomic force microscopy (TMAFM) analysis were employed to investigate the morphology of the active layer blends.]]> Thu 06 Aug 2015 11:50:18 AEST ]]> Synthesis and electronic properties of semiconducting polymers containing benzodithiophene with alkyl phenylethynyl substituents https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:10416 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:12:39 AEDT ]]> Synthesis and photovoltaic performance of donor-acceptor polymers containing benzo[1,2-<i>b</i>:4,5-<i>b</i>]dithiophene with thienyl substituents https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:19396 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:52:04 AEDT ]]> Influence of the alkyl substituents spacing on the solar cell performance of benzodithiophene semiconducting polymers https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/uon:23298 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:16:20 AEDT ]]>
