Abstract

A novel C₆₀ solar cell acceptor (BTOQC, benzo[2,1,3]-thiadiazole-o-quinodimethane-C₆₀ bisadducts) based on benzo[2,1,3]thiadiazole has been synthesized as model to study how the thiadiazole group will affect the device performance in bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaics (BHJ-OPV) with poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) as donor. The optoelectronic, electrochemistry, and photovoltaic properties of the novel bisadduct BTOQC have been fully investigated. The best device performance of this fullerene derivative in our research was obtained as 2.50% with a high V_oc of 0.74 V.
