Plasma patterning of Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):Poly(styrenesulfonate) anodes for efficient polymer solar cells

Highly flexible peeled-off silver nanowire transparent anode using in organic light-emitting devices

“…Conductive poly-(4,3-ethylene dioxythiophene):poly(styrene-sulfonate)(PEDOT:PSS) networks [6], carbon nanotubes (CNTs) [7,8,9], random networks of metallic nanowires [10], etc. are alternative materials for manufacturing flexible devices.…”

Efficient Semi‐Transparent Organic Solar Cells with Good Transparency Color Perception and Rendering Properties

“…[ 9 , 10 ] The concept of semi-transparent solar cells becomes particularly interesting for window applications if mainly the infrared part of light is absorbed. In order to synthesize polymers with an extended absorption to the infrared, the concept of co-polymers with alternating electron rich and electron depleted units such as poly [2,7-(9,9-dioctylfluorene)-alt-5,5-(5',8'-di-2-thienyl-(2',3'-bis-(3''-octyloxyphenyl)-quinoxaline))] (APFO-15), [ 11 ] poly[N-9'-heptadecanyl-2,7-carbazole-alt-5,5-(4',7'-di-2-thienyl-2',1',3'-benzothiadiazole)] (PCDTBT), [ 12 ] poly[2,6-(4,4-bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-4H-cyclopenta[2,1-b;3,4-b']dithiophene)-alt-4,7-(2,1,3-benzothiadiazole)] (PCPDTBT) [ 13 ] or poly[(4,4'-bis(2-ethylhexyl) dithieno [3,2- [ 14 ] has proven itself benefi cial.…”

Organic Semiconductors for Thermoelectric Applications

“…4,5 The fabrication of highly electrical conducting PEDOT:PSS thin films has been reported utilizing the high-boiling solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). 1,2 This impact of DMSO on the electrical properties of PEDOT:PSS thin films can be attributed to the fact that DMSO affects the PEDOT:PSS morphology during the drying process. 6,7 In this work we show that tailoring the electronic properties of PEDOT:PSS also allows for modification of the thermoelectric properties.…”
