Junlian Zhang has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Synthesis of photovoltaic conjugated polymers
    Patent number: 9783634
    Abstract: A method of making a fluorothieno[3,4-b]thiophene derivatives and photovoltaic polymers containing same using 3-bromothiophene-2-carboxylic acid as a starting material. This synthetic route provides an easier synthesis as well as greater yield and a purer product, which produces superior results over the prior art less pure products. The resulting materials can be used in a variety of photovoltaic applications and devices, especially solar cells.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 6, 2015
    Date of Patent: October 10, 2017
    Assignees: SOLARMER ENERGY, INC., PHILLIPS 66 COMPANY
    Inventors: Shuangxi Wang, Chenjun Shi, Ruby Chen, Junlian Zhang, Wei Wang, Yue Wu, Hui Huang, Amit Palkar, Ting He
