An eco‐friendly water‐soluble fluorene‐based polyelectrolyte as interfacial layer for efficient inverted polymer solar cells

A conjugated polyelectrolyte poly(9,9‐bis(3′‐[(N,N‐dimethyl)‐N‐ethylammonium]‐propyl)‐2,7‐fluorene dibromide) (PFBr) with the feature of environmental friendliness and cheapness was successfully used in polymer solar cells (PSCs) as the cathode interfacial layer (CIL). And we successfully demonstrate that the PFBr can build interfacial dipoles at the CIL/cathode interfaces, leading to reduce cathode work functions and improve open‐circuit voltages, which decrease interfacial energy loss at the cathode. It not only improves the electron transfer efficiency but also inhibits the charge carrier recombination at the contact interface. Impedance spectra revealed that the optimal device with the smallest charge transport time constant of 2.83 microseconds was achieved under the concentration of 2 mg mL⁻¹ of PFBr, which suggests efficient electron transport on the interface between the organic active layer and the indium tin oxide cathode. Moreover, as a consequence, the power conversion efficiency of the PSCs increases to 3.83% (with PFBr as CIL) from 1.89% (without any CIL), based on the poly(3‐hexylthiophene) and [6,6]‐phenyl C₆₁‐butyric acid methyl ester bulk heterojunction active layer. Therefore, our observation can demonstrate PFBr is a prospective candidate as CIL for constructing low‐cost, large‐area, and flexible PSCs.

Effect of the mediator in feedback mode-based SECM interrogation of indium tin-oxide and boron-doped diamond electrodes

Indium tin-oxide (ITO) and polycrystalline boron-doped diamond (BDD) have been examined in detail using the scanning electrochemical microscopy technique in feedback mode. For the interrogation of electrodes made from these materials, the choice of mediator has been varied. Using ferrocene methanol (FcMeOH), and approach curve experiments have been performed, and for purposes of comparison, calculations of the apparent heterogeneous electron transfer rates (k _app) have been made using these data. In general, it would appear that values of k _app are affected mainly by the position of the mediator reversible potential relative to the relevant semiconductor band edge (associated with majority carriers). For both the ITO (n type) and BDD (p type) electrodes, charge transfer is impeded and values are very low when using FcMeOH and as mediators, and the use of results in the largest value of k _app. With ITO, the surface is chemically homogeneous and no variation is observed for any given mediator. Data is also presented where the potential of the ITO electrode is fixed using a ratio of the mediators and In stark contrast, the BDD electrode is quite the opposite and a range of k _app values are observed for all mediators depending on the position on the surface. Both electrode surfaces are very flat and very smooth, and hence, for BDD, variations in feedback current imply a variation in the electrochemical activity. A comparison of the feedback current where the substrate is biased and unbiased shows a surprising degree of proportionality.Dedicated to Alan, a good friend and colleague on his 60th birthday.

Studies on interaction of porphyrin and its complexes with DNA at interface on gold electrode modified by thiol-porphyrin self-assembled monolayer

The interaction of 5-[p-(mercaptopropyloxy)-phenyl]-10, 15, 20-triphenylporphyrin (H₂MPTPP) and its metalloporphyrin (Co, Ni-MPTPP) with calf thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) has been studied on gold electrode modified by thiol-porphyrin self-assembled monolayer (SAM). The mode and characteristics of their interaction with DNA have been studied by cyclic voltammetry, scanning electrochemical microscope (SECM), and alternating current (AC) impedance. Some electrochemical parameters have been determined, i.e., apparent heterogeneous reaction rate constant (k _eff from SECM and k _f from AC impedance) and the hindrance (B) of electrode. K₃[Fe(CN)₆] was used as probe to obtain some electrochemical information of electrode interface. SECM images obtained from interface on SAM interacted with DNA showed very good resolution with different topography. Based on a comparison with the results from experiments, a reasonable agreement between SECM and AC impedance can be obtained, which means a conjunction of them. It is proposed to be electrostatic interaction of H₂MPTPP, Co-MPTPP and Ni-MPTPP with DNA, and the attractive force between porphyrins and DNA follows the order Ni-MPTPP > Co-MPTPP > H₂MPTPP.     

Electrochemical and microscopic studies of surface-confined DNA

We have studied the micropatterning and characterization of the organic monolayers using cyclic voltammetry (CV), scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM), atom force microscopy, and AC impedance, and have determined the electrochemical parameters, i.e., the apparent reaction rate constant (K _f) and the coverage of the electrode surface (θ). CV and SECM experiments demonstrated that the surface of the modified electrode represents an insulating substrate for ferricyanide. Using the high sensitivity of the electron transfer of ferricyanide to the modification of the gold surface with DNA, we selected this reaction as a probe to study the different modification stages at this modified electrode. SECM images obtained from bare, partially modified, and totally modified electrodes showed very good resolution with different topographies or null according to the extent of modification. Based on a comparison with the results of the experiments, a reasonable agreement can be obtained, which means a conjunction of these techniques.
