Thiophene-based Materials for Organic Solar Cells -Photovoltaics of the third Generation

摘要

Conjugated oligo- and polyheterocycles represent an important class of compounds in the field of organic materials and have successfully been used as active components in organic electronic devices, such as field effect transistors (FET) and logic circuits, light emitting diodes (LED) and full-colour displays, solar cells (OSC) or in molecular electronics. Their main advantage lies in their excellent charge transport properties which are a limiting prerequisite for most applications.
