This article is written to provide an up-to-date review of porphyrin-based materials used in
organic solar cells (OSCs). During the past two decades, OSCs have been the subject of …

Organic photovoltaics (OPV) represent a thin‐film PV technology that offers attractive
prospects for low‐cost and aesthetically appealing (colored, flexible, uniform …

This article presents an overview of the developments in the field of organic photovoltaics
(PVs) with liquid crystals (LCs). A brief introduction to the PV and LC fields is given first …

A nanographene-fused expanded carbaporphyrin (5) and its BF2 complex (6) were
synthesized. Single-crystal X-ray structures revealed that 5 and 6 are connected by two hexa …

In contrast to zero-bandgap graphene, nanostructures of graphene, such as graphene
quantum dots (GQDs) and graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have open bandgaps due to the …

Hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene (HBC) based molecules 5 and 6 have been designed and
synthesized. These planar coronenes are appended with rotors to invoke aggregation …

Porphyrin and their versatile metal complexes represent a special class of coordination
compounds possessing unique physical-chemical properties. The achievements in the …

Bottom-up strategies have allowed the synthesis of “molecular” nanographenes with full
control over size, shape and functionality. In recent years, the progress on wet chemical …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are in a class of functional organic compounds
with increasing importance in organic electronics. Their tunable photophysical properties …

Due to the π-conjugation of the whole molecule along with the push–pull property of a newly
designed conjugated donor–acceptor porphyrin, the solution processed solar cells using the …
