Abstract: A compound of the general formula I wherein R1 is selected from the group consisting of H, alkoxy, alkyl, fluorinated alkyl, partly fluorinated alkyl, and aryl; R4 is selected from the group consisting of H, halogen, CN, alkoxy, alkyl, fluorinated alkyl, partly fluorinated alkyl, branched or linear, cyclic or open-chain alkyl, amino, aryl, and alkenyl; and at least one A1, A2, A3 or A4 in each case is independently the group Ia wherein each variable is as defined herein.

Abstract: When organic photovoltaic components are laser-structured, protuberances occur, which can protrude significantly beyond the height of the layered stack. The invention describes a technique for stabilising the laser-structured protuberances so that further processing of the semi-finished product is possible, and describes the integration of said product in a subsequent encapsulation of the OPV component.

Abstract: The invention describes the use of polyphenols and polyamino derivatives adjacent to absorber layers on the basis of small molecules in organic optoelectronic components.
