Description

Asymmetric organic small-molecule photovoltaic material based on benzothiadiazole unit and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a benzothiadiazole asymmetric organic micromolecule photovoltaic material, a preparation method thereof and a solar cell device using the benzothiadiazole organic micromolecule as a donor material, belonging to the field of organic photoelectric materials.
Background
Compared with polymers, organic small molecules have the advantages of easy modification of structure, simple purification and preparation, low manufacturing cost of photovoltaic devices and the like, and become main research contents of organic photovoltaics. At present, the Photoelectric Conversion Efficiency (PCE) of the symmetrical organic small molecule donor material in the solution process is up to 11.3 percent, and is very close to the PCE of the current polymer donor material, which shows that the research of the organic small molecule donor material has theoretical and practical application values. Compared with polymer donor materials, the types of small organic molecule donor materials are still few, the PCE is generally low, and especially the types of asymmetric small organic molecule donor materials are fewer. Therefore, in order to broaden the research scope of organic small molecule donor materials, the invention aims to design and synthesize a novel asymmetric organic small molecule donor material.
Most studies have shown that electron-donating-electron-withdrawing units (D-A) are present) The material with the conjugated structure can effectively realize the charge transmission effect (namely ICT effect) in molecules, thereby improving the short-circuit current density (J) of the materialsc). Therefore, the structure with the D-A conjugation is important for improving the performance of the organic small molecule photovoltaic material. Compared with molecules with symmetrical structures, the asymmetrical molecules have more obvious electron pushing-pulling effect. A large number of researches show that the benzothiadiazole unit is widely applied to the fields of organic photovoltaics, organic field effect transistors and the like due to the advantages of good planarity, strong electron absorption, easy structure modification and the like. By means of alkoxylation on the benzothiadiazole unit, the solubility of the compound can be improved, and weak non-covalent bond (O- - -S) exists between an oxygen atom on the alkoxy and a sulfur atom on a thiophene ring, so that the overall planarity of the molecule is improved to a certain extent. Meanwhile, Dicyanovinyl (DCV) is a strong electron-deficient group, can enhance the ICT effect of molecules to a certain extent, and is common in the structure of dye-sensitized materials. At present, the PCE of symmetric organic small molecule donor materials based on diazosulfide units reaches 6.5%. However, the PCE based on the asymmetric material of the cell is also only 3.4% compared to the symmetric material. In addition, it is worth mentioning that V of such materialsocAlso below 1.0V. This indicates that there is still less research on benzothiadiazole asymmetric organic small molecule photovoltaic materials. Meanwhile, the adjustment of the energy level of the structure by pi conjugate bonds with different electron withdrawing properties is lack of systematic research, and the PCE and V of the corresponding photovoltaic deviceocAnd is also generally lower.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problems, the invention aims to enrich the research range of the benzothiadiazole asymmetric organic micromolecule photovoltaic material, and improves V by introducing pi-bridge bonds with different electron-withdrawing capabilities into a molecular structure and reducing the molecular HOMO energy level and the band gapocAnd JscAnd a certain theoretical basis is laid for the research of developing novel and efficient benzothiadiazole asymmetric small molecular donor materials.

Test results show that the photovoltaic performance of the device, namely J, is obtained primarily after the active layer is simply solution-suspendedscIs 7.96mA cm-2,Voc1.03V, FF 0.30, PCE 2.43%. The compound exhibited the highest V compared to the compounds in the other examplesocThis is due to its lower HOMOCVEnergy level value, which is the highest V of the existing solution process based on triphenylamine-benzothiadiazole asymmetric organic small molecule donor materialoc. In addition, J of the materialscAnd also reaches the highest, which is related to the fact that the ultraviolet-visible spectrum absorption chart shows stronger ICT peaks, and further high PCE is obtained.
Example 4
This example discloses the synthesis of small organic molecule donor material Q4, comprising the following steps:
under the protection of nitrogen, compound A (0.25mmol,0.178g), compound D4(0.30mmol, 0.141g), tetrakis (triphenylphosphine) palladium (0.025mmol,29mg) and potassium carbonate (10mmol,1.380 g) were placed in a 50mL three-necked flask, 10mL of toluene, 5mL of ethanol and 5mL of water were sequentially added, and the mixture was heated under reflux at 110 ℃ for 48 hours. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, poured into 20mL of water and extracted with dichloromethane (3X 30mL), the organic phases were combined, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the crude product was subjected to column chromatography using petroleum ether/dichloromethane as the developing solvent in a volume ratio of 3: 2 to give 0.125g of a red solid in 51.2% yield.
The reaction scheme above for the preparation of compound Q4 is as follows:
Figure BDA0001410778180000161
referring to fig. 10, the absorption chart of compound Q4 in chloroform solution and film-forming state is normalized uv-vis spectrum in example 4. As can be seen from the figure, similar to the compound absorptions in example 1 and example 2, the compound Q4 in example 4 has two distinct characteristic absorption peaks in the range of 300-600nm in both the solution state and the thin film state. After the phenylethynyl is introduced into the molecular structure, the aim of increasing the molecular conjugation degree and improving the molecular planarity is also fulfilled, so that the maximum absorption peak of the compound Q4 in example 4 is red-shifted by 15 nm. However, since C ≡ C is slightly more rigid than C ≡ C, the backbone structure of the molecule is distorted to some extent, resulting in a slight blue-shift in its absorption compared to compound Q2 in example 2, but compound Q4

Narrower than compound Q2, 2.05 eV.
See FIG. 11 for Bu at 0.1M for Compound Q4 in example 44NBF4/CH2Cl2Cyclic voltammograms measured in solution. As can be seen, compound Q4 has an initial oxidation potential of 0.43V and an initial reduction potential of-1.43V, and the corresponding HOMOCVIs-5.18 eV, LUMOCVIs-3.32 eV, and is,
Figure BDA0001410778180000163
it was 1.86 eV. Compared with the compound Q1 in example 1, the introduction of phenylethynyl effectively reduces HOMO of the material Q4CVTo LUMOCVThe influence is not great. In addition, compared with compound Q2 in example 2, since C ≡ C is more electronegative than C ═ C, it results in a HOMO towards the compoundCVThe reduction degree of (D) is slightly larger than that of LUMOCVIs reduced, then
Figure BDA0001410778180000164
Slightly wider than compound Q2. In addition, in comparison with the compound Q3 in example 3, phenylethynyl group is weaker in electron-withdrawing ability than 2-cyano-styryl group, and thus HOMO thereofCVHigher than compound Q3. In addition, of Compound Q4 in this example
Figure BDA0001410778180000172
It was 1.86 eV.
See FIG. 12 for a series of experiments with the compound Q4 of example 4 and PC61BM according to the mass ratio of 1: 3 (the total concentration is 12 mgmL)-1) The current-voltage curves of photovoltaic devices as active layers are mixed. Test results show that after the active layer is simply subjected to solution suspension coating, the photovoltaic performance of the device obtained preliminarily is as follows: j. the design is a squaresc=5.91mA cm-2,Voc0.94V, FF 0.27, PCE 1.48%. Compared with the compounds in other examples, the rigidity of phenylethynyl is stronger than that of other bridges, so that the whole skeleton of the molecule Q4 is slightly distorted, and relatively weak absorption capacity, JscSlightly decreased.
The photophysical, electrochemical and photovoltaic data for the compounds synthesized in examples 1-4 are listed in Table 1.

As can be seen from Table 1, the compounds Q1 to Q4 of the examples of the present invention
Figure BDA0001410778180000173
And
Figure BDA0001410778180000174
the change trend of the pressure sensor is basically consistent. Compared with the other two bridge bonds, after the phenyl and the phenylethynyl are introduced, the HOMO energy level of the corresponding compound is effectively reduced, and then high V exceeding 1.0V is obtainedoc. Compared with the prior literature, the micromolecule donor materials synthesized by the method all show more outstanding photovoltaic performance, and particularly, a photovoltaic device taking the compound Q3 as the micromolecule donor obtains a high V of 1.03VocAnd a PCE of 2.43%. The result is that the solution process reported in the literature at present is based on the highest V of the benzothiadiazole-triphenylamine asymmetric organic small molecule donor materialoc
