Understanding the influence of carboxylate substitution on the …
Carboxylate substitution is a common approach to tune the energy level of donor polymers for organic solar cells. However, the influence of carboxylate substitution on the morphological and electronic properties of donor polymers is not well understood.
Once reserved for climate-conscious homeowners willing to shell out a pretty penny, solar panels now cover the rooftops of millions of U.S. homes.Why''d they become so popular? They''re good for the planet––and they''re good for your wallet. The cost of solar has come down significantly over the past decade, while electricity prices have …

It''s worth noting that reducing CO2 and other emissions isn''t only about curbing climate change – it''s also about improving the quality of the air that supports life on planet Earth. In fact, a 2023 Air Quality Life Index report found that "air pollution is the greatest external threat to human life expectancy on the planet" and "reducing global PM2.5 air pollution to …
Donor polymer design enables efficient non-fullerene organic solar …
To achieve efficient organic solar cells, the design of suitable donor–acceptor couples is crucially important. State-of-the-art donor polymers used in fullerene cells may not perform well when they are combined with non-fullerene acceptors, thus new donor polymers ...
Efficient organic solar cells processed from hydrocarbon solvents …
Nature Energy - The processing of high-performance organic solar cells usually requires environmentally hazardous solvents. Now, hydrocarbon-based processing is shown to achieve relatively...
Understanding the influence of carboxylate substitution on the property of high-performance donor polymers in non-fullerene organic solar …
Carboxylate substitution is a common approach to tune the energy level of donor polymers for organic solar cells. However, the influence of carboxylate substitution on the morphological and electronic properties of donor polymers is not well understood. In this paper, we study two pairs of structurally simil
