| Abstract | A new series of 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (BT) acceptors with different conjugated aryl-vinylene side chains have been designed and used to build efficient low-bandgap (LBG) photovoltaic copolymers. Based on benzo[1,2-b:3,4-b′]dithiophene and the resulting new BT derivatives, three two-dimensional (2D)-like donor (D)–acceptor (A) conjugated copolymers have been synthesised by Stille coupling polymerisation. These copolymers were characterised by NMR spectroscopy, gel-permeation chromatography, thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. UV/Vis absorption and cyclic voltammetry measurements indicated that their optical and electrochemical properties can be facilely modified by changing the structures of the conjugated aryl-vinylene side chains. The copolymer with phenyl-vinylene side chains exhibited the best light harvesting and smallest bandgap of the three copolymers. The basic electronic structures of D–A model compounds of these copolymers were also studied by DFT calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of theory. Polymer solar cells (PSCs) with a typical structure of indium tin oxide (ITO)/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT):poly(styrenesulfonate) $(PSS)/copolymer:[6,6]-phenyl-C_{61}(C_{71})-butyric$ acid-methyl ester (PCBM)/calcium (Ca)/aluminum (Al) were fabricated and measured under the illumination of AM1.5G at $100 mW cm^{−2}.$ The results showed that the device based on the copolymer with phenyl-vinylene side chains had the highest efficiency of 2.17 % with $PC_{71}BM$ as acceptor. The results presented herein indicate that all the prepared copolymers are promising candidates for roll-to-roll manufacturing of efficient PSCs. Suitable electronic, optical and photovoltaic properties of BT-based copolymers can also be achieved by fine-tuning the structures of the aryl-vinylene side chains for photovoltaic application. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
