This review summarizes the synthetic strategies for substituted phthalonitriles and
phthalocyanines. Preparation of alkyl-, aryl-, halo-, nitro-, alkoxy-, aryloxy-, alkylthio-, arylthio …

Efficient single bulk heterojunction organic solar cells based on blends of a fluorinated zinc
phthalocyanine as electron donor and fullerene C60 as electron acceptor are reported. In …

Although ambipolar materials are highly studied in organic electronics, they are rarely used
in gas sensors. In the present work, we studied ammonia sensing on organic …

Thin films of perfluorinated phthalocyanines F16Pc show promise as molecular
semiconductors in organic field effect transistors. A review is provided of growth studies and …

In this work, the effect of fluorine and chlorine substituents in tetrasubstituted zinc
phthalocyanines, introduced into the non-peripheral (ZnPcR4-np, R= F, Cl) and peripheral …

The best organic solar cells (OSCs) achieve comparable peak external quantum efficiencies
and fill factors as conventional photovoltaic devices. However, their voltage losses are much …

In this contribution we demonstrate a solid-state approach to triplet–triplet annihilation
upconversion for application in a solar cell device in which absorption of near-infrared light …

Motivated by the possibility of modifying energy levels of a molecule without substantially
changing its band gap, the impact of gradual fluorination on the optical and structural …

This article investigates the evolving domain of hybrid pigments, which integrate both
organic and inorganic constituents to yield novel color properties and enhanced …

Organic molecules are currently being investigated with regard to their application as active
components in semiconductor devices. Whereas devices containing organic molecules for …
