Application
PTB7 is an advanced material engineered to enhance the performance of polymeric solar cells (PSCs). By serving as an active layer, PTB7 significantly boosts light absorption and improves electron mobility, leading to some of the highest efficiencies reported for polymer:fullerene solar cells. Its unique properties, including extended absorption into the near-infrared spectrum and a lower HOMO level, contribute to its effectiveness. Additionally, the complete package of processing information accompanying PTB7 makes it a straightforward and cost-effective solution for improving solar cell efficiencies, supporting a wide range of organic photovoltaic (OPV) research. PTB7's solubility across various solvents facilitates easy preparation and filtration, rendering it suitable for diverse coating techniques. Its versatility as a quick and effective tool underscores its value in advancing the performance and impact of solar energy devices.
