摘要:
There is disclosed a method of coordinating ligands, such as nitrogen-containing ligands to metal centers of metal-containing macrocyclic compounds, such as Magnesium Tetraphenyl Porphyrin (MgTPP) or Zinc Tetraphenyl Porphyrin (ZnTPP). The disclosed method comprises (a) forming an organic film comprising the disclosed metal-containing, macrocyclic compound; and (b) exposing the organic film to a vapor comprising at least one ligand for a time sufficient to coordinate the ligand to metal centers in the metal-containing, macrocyclic compound. There is also disclosed a method for preparing an organic photovoltaic device, such as a solar cell, comprising an ordered crystalline organic film made by the disclosed chemical annealing process.
摘要:
The present disclosure generally relates to chromophoric compounds that combine strong absorption of light at visible wavelengths with the ability to undergo symmetry-breaking intramolecular charge transfer (ICT), and their use for the generation of free carriers in organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs) and electric-field-stabilized geminate polaron pairs. The present disclosure also relates to the synthesis of such compounds, methods of manufacture, and applications in photovoltaic systems and organic lasers.
摘要:
Coordinating additives are included in porphyrinoid-based materials to promote intermolecular organization and improve one or more photoelectric characteristics of the materials. The coordinating additives are selected from fullerene compounds and organic compounds having free electron pairs. Combinations of different coordinating additives can be used to tailor the characteristic properties of such porphyrinoid-based materials, including porphyrin oligomers. Bidentate ligands are one type of coordinating additive that can form coordination bonds with a central metal ion of two different porphyrinoid compounds to promote porphyrinoid alignment and/or pi-stacking. The coordinating additives can shift the absorption spectrum of a photoactive material toward higher wavelengths, increase the external quantum efficiency of the material, or both.

摘要:
An electronic device having an LV-well element trigger structure that reduces the effective snapback trigger voltage in MOS drivers or ESD protection devices. A reduced triggering voltage facilitates multi-finger turn-on and thus uniform current flow and/or helps to avoid competitive triggering issues.
摘要:
Disclosed herein are organic photosensitive devices including a first subcell and a second subcell and having at least one exciton-blocking charge carrier filter disposed between the subcells. The filters comprise a mixture of at least one wide energy gap material and at least one electron or hole conducting material. As described herein, the filters simultaneously block excitons and conduct the desired charge carrier (electrons or holes).
