A photoactive layer for an organic photovoltaic device has a supramolecular assembly of donors or acceptors formed from a plurality of units that are mixed with electron acceptors or electron donors, respectively, to form an ordered or semi-ordered bulk heterojunction structure. Each unit is formed from a plurality of sub-units that are combined and ordered by hydrogen bonding or other non-covalent interactions to form units that by π-stacking and, optionally, other forces are organized into the supramolecular assembly. Each sub-unit includes at least one electron donor or acceptor moiety, at least one non-covalent interacting moiety, and a linking moiety between the non-covalent interacting moiety and the electron donor or electron acceptor moiety of the sub-unit. The organized supramolecular assembly connects donors or acceptors through the thickness of the photoactive layer, and allows parallel continuous electron acceptor or electron donor phases through the thickness of the active layer.
一种有机光伏器件的光活性层具有供体或受体的超分子组装,由多个单元混合电子受体或电子供体形成有序或半有序的杂化结构。每个单元由多个亚单元组成,通过
氢键或其他非共价相互作用组合和有序排列,形成通过π堆积和可选的其他力组织成超分子组装体。每个亚单元包括至少一个电子供体或受体基团,至少一个非共价相互作用基团,以及连接非共价相互作用基团和亚单元电子供体或电子受体基团之间的连接基团。有序的超分子组装体通过光活性层的厚度连接供体或受体,并允许平行连续的电子受体或电子供体相通过活性层的厚度。
