Four new 2,1,3-benzooxadiazole-based donoracceptor conjugated polymers, namely poly{9-(9-heptadecanyl)-9H-carbazole-alt-5,6-bis(octyloxy)-4,7-di(selenophen-2-yl)benzo[ c][1,2,5] oxadiazole)}(PSBSC), poly{9-(9-heptadecanyl)-9H-carbazole- alt-5,6-bis(octyloxy)-4,7-di(furan-2-yl) benzo[c][1,2,5]oxadiazole)}(PFBFC), poly{9,9-dioctyl-9H-fluorene-alt-5,6bis( octyloxy)-4,7-di(selenophen-2-yl) benzo[c][1,2,5] oxadiazole)} (PSBSFL), and poly{9,9-dioctyl-9H-fluorene-alt-5,6-bis(octyloxy)- 4,7-di(furan-2-yl) benzo[c][1,2,5] oxadiazole)}(PFBFFL), were synthesized via Stille polycondensation reaction. All polymers were found to be soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, and chlorobenzene. Their structures were verified by 1 H-NMR and the molecular weights were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The polymer films exhibited broad absorption bands. Among all polymers, photovoltaic cells based on the device structure of ITO/PEDOT: PSS/PSBSC: PC71BM(1: 3, w/w)/LiF/Al revealed an open-circuit voltage of 0.62 V, a short circuit current of 7.63 mA cm 22 and a power conversion efficiency of 1.89%. This work demonstrates a good example for tuning absorption range, energy level, and photovoltaic properties of the polymers with different spacers and donor units can offer a simple and effective method to improve the efficiency of PSCs.

Synthesis, characterizations and photovoltaic applications of dithienothiophene and benzotriazole containing conjugated polymers
Cevher, Şevki Can; Çırpan, Ali; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Department of Chemistry (2013)
Fused bithiophene containing conjugated polymers are recently used in different applications; for example organic light emitting diodes, solar cells, electrochromic devices and organic field effect transistors. Fused bithiophene derivatives increase the planarity, charge mobility and decrease band gap when incorporated into the polymer backbone. Connecting atom between the bithiopheneunit can be phosphorous, silicon, nitrogen and sulphur. In this thesis, dihienothiophene was coupled with benzotriazole via S...
