Abstract
We present a spiro-linked molecule 2,2',7,7'-tetrakis(3-hexyl-5-(7-(4-hexylthiophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazol-4-yl)thiophen-2-yl)-9,9'-spirobifluorene which acts as a secondary absorber in solid-state excitonic solar cells. Blending with a hole-transporting material 2,2'7,7'-tetrakis(N,N-di-p-methoxyphenyl-amine)-9,9'-spirobifluorene and used in conjunction with a near-infrared dye (termed TT1) results in an extended spectral response which yields a notable increase in short-circuit current and power conversion efficiency. This enhancement is due to both exciton energy transfer and also nanoscale charge generation in the blend via the formation of an excited state spiro-complex with charge transfer character.
Microsoft is Ending Support for Windows 7
Microsoft will discontinue support for Windows 7 on January 14, 2020 which means Gamry will also be discontinuing support for Windows 7. If you are upgrading to Windows 10, like many companies and institutions, you need to be running Version 7 of our s oftware . Please note that only USB and Ethernet-based instruments can run in Version 7. Eligible users can download the latest version of our software through our online Client Portal .
If you haven't already registered your instrument, you can do so through the Client Portal .
Please email Technical Support if you have any questions regarding this transition. Please be sure to include your instrument model and serial number when contacting us.
