  • Methods and systems of organic semiconducting polymers
    Patent number: 11678562
    Abstract: An organic photovoltaic device comprising a polymer: and an acceptor. In this organic photovoltaic device, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 are independently selected from the group consisting of: a halogen, a substituted alkyl, an unsubstituted alkyl, a substituted aryl, an unsubstituted aryl, a substituted heteroaryl and an unsubstituted heteroaryl.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 26, 2020
    Date of Patent: June 13, 2023
    Assignee: Phillips 66 Company
    Inventors: Hualong Pan, Kathy A. Repa, Brian J. Worfolk, Alyssa Brooke Chinen-Mendez
  • Methods and systems of organic semiconducting polymers
    Patent number: 11600779
    Abstract: A polymer comprising: In this embodiment, R? and R?, can be independently selected from the group consisting of: a halogen, a substituted alkyl, an unsubstituted alkyl, a substituted aryl, and an unsubstituted aryl. Additionally, X1 and X2 can be independently selected from the group consisting of: O, S, Se, N—R, and Si—R—R. Lastly, Ar and Ar? can be identical or different and can be independently selected from the group consisting of: a substituted aryl, and an unsubstituted aryl.
    Type: Grant
