Novel materials for organic and hybrid electronics and photonics
Kratochvíl, Matouš ; Yumusak,, Cigdem (oponent) ; Táborský, Petr (oponent) ; Weiter, Martin (vedoucí práce)
The field of organic electronics offers the unique possibility of mass production of cheap and environmentally friendly electronics. It opens doors to novel functionalities and device forms not possible with the standard metal- and silicon-based electronics. The possibilities given by the nature of organic compounds and progress in synthetic research supply new materials for photonic applications. The search for novel materials and the investigation of the relationship between the molecular (and crystalline) structure and properties of the material are the main motivation of this thesis. This thesis is focused on study of optical and/or electrical properties of novel materials for photonic applications. The materials presented in the thesis are both organic and hybrid organic-inorganic ones, trying to get the best of both worlds. The research presented in this thesis comprises three distinct parts interconnected by the aim to study the relationship between the structure of material and its properties and by the methods used to study these properties. The first part aims to present efficient solid-state fluorescent (SSF) materials. In this thesis two series of SSF materials are presented. The colour of the emission is controlled by varying the electron withdrawing groups in the push-pull systems of molecules. The results show efficient emission (>10 %) covering most of the visible spectrum (~450–650 nm). The second part of the research investigates the effect of thionation on the well-known small-molecule group of semiconductors, diketopyrrolopyrroles (DPPs). The presented result shows a notable preference for n-type behaviour upon thionation with increase of electron mobilities by orders of magnitude, as well as impressively low lying LUMO levels (~ 4,5 eV) in the studied molecules. The third part of the presented results aims at perovskite materials for photonic applications. The hybrid material, organo-lead-halide perovskite, has been the center of attention of researchers interested in advanced photonics for almost a decade and half. The perovskite solar cells have shown remarkable efficiency, however, their utilization is still hindered by stability issues. A stability study is presented as a reference point for further research on this topic and to gather insight into processes influencing the stability of perovskite material and solar cells. Then an approach to increase the stability and performance of the cell is proposed and tested utilizing materials studied in the second study.
