This work covers the development of non-fullerene acceptors for use in organic
photovoltaics built using the N-annulated perylene diimide dye. The classic perylene diimide …

Hole-transport layers (HTLs) and hole-injection layers (HIL) are an integral part of
optoelectronic devices such as organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs) and organic light-emitting …

Organic photovoltaics (OPV) that possibly convert ambient lights to electric energy are under
the spotlight as a power supplier for portable, wearable, and Internet of Things devices. In …

Cathode interlayer materials (CILs) for solution-processed organic photovoltaics (OPVs)
serve an instrumental role in mitigating charge extraction challenges to achieve high power …

Herein, we report on the design, synthesis, physical and chemical properties, and organic
