Are we there yet? Design of better conjugated polymers for polymer solar cells
Abstract
Over the last ten years, polymer solar cells have been developed as an attractive alternative to the traditional silicon photovoltaic devices. Remarkable progress has been made in polymer-fullerene solar cells and several polymers have shown power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) greater than 7%. The most important recent development has been the synthesis of new low bandgap polymers with optimal properties for the solar cells. Herein we provide an overview of the key strategies of optimization of highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels in the design of new low bandgap conjugated polymers. Detailed examples of representative donor polymers, the current state of the art in their solar cell performances and possible future directions for development of new polymers with improved efficiencies are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
