This paper reports on the design and synthesis of three new ruthenium sensitizers, as well as the optimization of their linear or dendritic light-harvesting oligothiophene antennas to achieve superior device performance. The three new ruthenium sensitizers, [Ru(dcbpy)(obtip)(NCS)2] (JF-5, dcbpy =4,4′-dicarboxylic acid-2,2′-bipyridine, obtip =2-(5-octyl-(2,2′-bithiophen)-5′-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10] phenanthroline), [Ru(dcbpy)(ottip)(NCS)2] (JF-6, ottip =2-(5-octyl-2,2′,5′,2″-terthiophen)-5″-yl)-1H-imidazo[4, 5-f][1,10]phenanthroline), and [Ru(dcbpy)(dottip)(NCS)2] (JF-7, dottip =2-(2,3-di-(5-octylthiophen-2-yl)thiophen-5-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10] phenanthroline), were synthesized in a typical one-pot reaction. The ruthenium sensitizer JF-5 incorporating a linear and planar 2,2′-bithiophene antenna showed the best DSCs performance (9.5%; compared to N3, 8.8%). The difference in the performance of these sensitizers demonstrates that elongating the linear and planar light-harvesting antenna result in an enhancement in MLCT intensity, but a reduction in the quantity of dye-loading. This finding not only permitted the power-conversion efficiency in ruthenium sensitizers containing oligothiophene antennas to be optimized, but also points to a promising direction for molecule engineering in DSCs.

This work reports a promising hole transporting material using a spiro-thiophene derivative with 4,4′-spirobi[cyclopenta[2,1-b;3,4-b′]dithiophene] as the spiro core for perovskite solar cells, exhibiting an overall power conversion efficiency of 10.4% with an open circuit voltage of 0.94 V, and a short circuit current density of 16.54 mA cm-2 under standard testing conditions.

The photorefractive effect in photoconductive ferroelectric liquid crystals (FLCs) that contain photoconductive chiral compounds was investigated. A series of novel photoconductive chiral compounds were synthesized. Terthiophene compounds with four chiral structures were chosen as the photoconductive chiral compounds and mixed with an achiral smectic C liquid crystal. The mixtures exhibit the ferroelectric chiral smectic C phase. The photorefractivity of the mixtures was investigated by two-beam coupling experiments. It was found that the FLCs containing the photoconductive chiral compound exhibit a large gain coefficient of 110 cm-1 and a fast response time of 5 ms.

Paragraph 0039-0041; 0042-0043, (2019/07/04)
The invention provides a cross-shaped small organic molecule hole transport material and a preparation method. The preparation method comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing 5-hexyl-5'-trimethyl-2,2'-bithiophene or 5-octyl-5'-trimethyl-2,2'-bithiophene with 3,3',5,5'-tetrabromo-2,2'-bithiophene in methylbenzene at a molar ratio of 1:(4-6); performing a reaction at the temperature of 90-120DEG C for 18-25h, cooling to room temperature and adding silica gel powder for spin drying; separating and purifying a coarse product after spin drying with dichloromethane and n-hexane at a ratio of1:(5-20) as an eluting agent to obtain the cross-shaped small organic molecule hole transport material which is shown in the structural formula I as shown in the specification or the structural formula II as shown in the specification. Due to the 'x' rotary cross-shaped structure of the hole transport material, the excessive crystallization can be effectively inhibited, so that a thiophene derivative have good solubility and excellent hole transport performance under the condition that no excessive alkyl substituted units are introduced; the current density and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of a device can be greatly improved after the cross-shaped small organic molecule hole transport material is applied in an all-inorganic perovskite solar cell.
