The synthesis, characterization, photophysical and redox properties of a dinuclear complex Zn 2 (AMOX) 4 (AMOX = 4-bromo-N,N′-diphenylbenzamidinate N-oxide) are highlighted. This compound is a first example of a novel class of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials. Noticeably, solution-processed white-green organic light-emitting diodes were fabricated using this complex as dopant in a co-host matrix in the [a] 4324 gands. This distinction indicates that the energy of the LUMO can be fine-tuned by modifying the C-aryl substituents with EW/ED groups. The TD-DFT calculations for 1 ( Figure S10, Table Eur.
Herein, we demonstrate the improvement in performance of inverted organic solar cells fabricated with an Ag-nanoparticle (Np) modified ZnO-electron transport layer. Ag NP incorporation into the ZnO layer increases light harvesting efficiency of the solar device which untimely improves Jsc of the device. As a result, power conversion efficiency (PCE) of ZnO + Ag Np buffer layer based (ITO/ZnO:Ag NP/P3HT: PCBM/MoO3/Ag) device reaches 3.02% which is 27% higher than ITO/ZnO/P3HT: PCBM/MoO3/Ag device and 55.6% higher than the electron transfer layer(ETL) free (ITO/P3HT: PCBM/MoO3/Ag) control device.
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.
