文摘
Two new conjugated copolymers, PBDT-T6-TTF and PBDT-T12-TTF, were derived from a novel 4-fluorobenzoyl thienothiophene (TTF). In addition, two types of benzodithiophene (BDT) units with 2,3-dihexylthienyl (T6) and 2,3-didodecylthienyl (T12) substituents, respectively, were successfully synthesized. The effect of the dual two-dimensional (2D) substitutions of the building blocks upon the optoelectronic properties of the polymers was investigated. Generally, the two polymers exhibited good solubility and broad absorption, showing similar optical band gaps of ?.53 eV. However, PBDT-T6-TTF with its shorter alkyl chain length possessed a larger extinction coefficient in thin solid film. The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level of PBDT-T6-TTF was located at ?.38 eV while that of PBDT-T12-TTF was at ?.51 eV. In space charge-limited-current (SCLC) measurement, PBDT-T6-TTF and PBDT-T12-TTF displayed respective hole mobilities of 3.0×10? and 1.6×10? cm2 V?s?. In polymer solar cells, PBDT-T6-TTF and PBDT-T12-TTF showed respective power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of 2.86% and 1.67%. When 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) was used as the solvent additive, the PCE of PBDT-T6-TTF was remarkably elevated to 4.85%, but the use of DIO for the PBDT-T12-TTF-blend film resulted in a lower PCE of 0.91%. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) indicated that the superior efficiency of PBDT-T6-TTF with 3% DIO (v/v) should be related to the better continuous phase separation of the blend film. Nevertheless, the morphology of the PBDT-T12-TTF deteriorated when the 3% DIO (v/v) was added. Our results suggest that the alkyl-chain length on the 2D BDT units play an important role in determining the optoelectronic properties of dual 2D BDT-TT-based polymers.
