  • COMPOUNDS CAPABLE OF UNDERGOING SYMMETRY BREAKING INTRAMOLECULAR CHARGE TRANSFER IN A POLARIZING MEDIUM AND ORGANIC PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICES COMPRISING THE SAME
    Publication number: 20150303377
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to chromophoric compounds that combine strong absorption of light at visible wavelengths with the ability to undergo symmetry-breaking intramolecular charge transfer (ICT), and their use for the generation of free carriers in organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs) and electric-field-stabilized geminate polaron pairs. The present disclosure also relates to the synthesis of such compounds, methods of manufacture, and applications in photovoltaic systems and organic lasers.
