Electronically asymmetric poly(1,4-phenylenevinylene)s for photovoltaic cells

We report a study on the feasibility of using an intramolecular dipole to enhance charge separation for organic photovoltaic applications. We have developed a poly(1,4-phenylenevinylene) derivative, poly{2-[(9,9-di-n-propyl-9H-7-nitrofluoren-2-yl)]-5-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene} 12, whic...
