Benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene-based conjugated polymers: band gap and energy level control and their application in polymer solar cells
Abstract
To pursue high power conversion efficiency (PCE) of polymer solar cells (PSCs), more and more new active layer materials, especially polymeric photovoltaic materials, have been developed in the past several years, and benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene (BDT) plays a very important role in these polymer materials. The applications of these new polymer materials boost the PCE of polymer solar cells greatly, and recent results indicate that 7–8% PCEs have been achieved by using BDT-based polymers. In this review, we summarize the recent works related to BDT-based polymers for the applications in PSCs and try to reveal the correlations of molecular structures of BDT-based polymers with their band gaps and molecular energy levels.

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.
