1. 1. Photophysics of the polymer acceptor PF5-Y5 in organic photovoltaics : A first principles theory based study

   University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

   Author : Anton Almén; [2022]
   Keywords : PF5-Y5; Non-fullerene-acceptor; NFA; polymer; fundamental; optical; gap; oxidation; reduction; exciton; binding; energy; oligomer; length; PF5-Y5; Non-fullerene-acceptor; NFA; polymer; fundamentalt; optiskt; gap; oxidation; reduktion; exciton; binding; energi; oligomerlängd;

   Abstract : Non-fullerene Acceptors (NFAs) have gathered a great deal of interest for use inorganic photovoltaics (OPVs) due to recent breakthroughs in their power conversion efficiency and other advantages they offer over their Fullerene-based counterparts. In this work, a new promising non-fullerene polymer acceptor, PF5-Y5, have been studied using density functional theory and time-dependent density functional theory; and the effects that oligomer length, geometry relaxation and exchange-correlation interaction has on the exciton binding energies (the difference between optical and fundamental energy gaps) have been investigated.

   Abstract : Organic solar cells (OSCs) based on non-fullerene acceptors (NFAs) have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years due to their rapidly increasing efficiency and enormous potential. In this work, the optical and electronic properties of systems containing the very promising non-fullerene acceptor PYT have been thoroughly studied with the use of the density functional theory (DFT) and the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT).

4. 3. A quantum chemical study of electronic circular dichroism in alanine oligopeptides

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Thomas Agrenius Gustafsson; [2018]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, exploiting the wavelength-dependentdifferential absorption of left- and right-handed circularly polarized light, isa popular method of protein characterization. Theoretically computed CDspectra from quantum mechanical computer models of peptides can widen theapplicability of the method. READ MORE
