PCE10 for high perfomance organic photovoltaics.

Poly[4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b;4,5-b']dithiophene-2,6-diyl-alt-(4-(2-ethylhexyl)-3-fluorothieno[3,4-b]thiophene-)-2-carboxylate-2-6-diyl)] commonly known as PCE10 / PBDTTT-EFT / PTB7-Th.

In stock now for immediate dispatch to academic institutions worldwide.

PCE10 is one of the new generation of OPV donor polymers that could deliver on the heralded 10/10 target of 10% efficiency and 10 years lifetime.

The advantages of PCE10 are that not only does the material lower HOMO/LUMO levels and increase the efficiencies compared to PTB7, but more significantly it is also far more stable. Early indications are that it can be handled under ambient conditions without issues, suggesting that we can look forward to measuring the long term lifetime of the devices.

PCE10 is one of the most exciting materials to have made it out of the labs in recent years and offers huge potential for more in depth research.
