Four new molecules namely bis (5,6-difluoro-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-2,1-diylidene) di-malononitrile (NDM-1), 3-fluorothiophen-2-yl) methylene)-5, 6-difluoro-3-oxo-2, 3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene) acetate (NDM-2), 5, 6-difluoro-3-oxo-2, 3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ylidene)-3-methyl-2-thioxothiazolidin-4-ylidene) malononitrile (NDM-3) and bis (1-methyl-2, 6-dioxo-1, 2, 5, 6-tetrahydropyridine-3-carbonitrile) (NDM-4) contains central Naphthalene Di-Imide unit with different end cap acceptors have been designed for enhance the photovoltaic efficiencies. Absorption values of designed molecules lies between 400 and 490 nm, re-organization energy values varies from 0.41 to 0.67 eV for electron and 0.49 eV to 1.25 eV for hole transfer, open circuit voltages range from 4.39 to 4.73 V which indicates their better photovoltaic properties as compared to the R (3-methyl-4-oxo-2-thioxothiazolidin-5-ylidene) methyl). Designed molecules proposed large number of electronic excitations and less charge loss at donor/acceptor interfaces due to small binding energy than reference molecule.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
