Naphthalocyanine-Based NIR Organic Photodiode: Understanding the Role of Different Types of Fullerenes.

In this work, we presented experimental observation on solution-processed bulk heterojunction organic photodiode using vanadyl 2,11,20,29-tetra tert-butyl 2,3 naphthalocyanine (VTTBNc) as a p-type material. VTTBNc is blended with two different acceptors, which are PCBM and PCBM, to offer further understanding in evaluating the performance in organic photodiode (OPD). The blend film of VTTBNc:PCBM with a volumetric ratio of 1:1 exhibits optimized performance in the VTTBNc blend structure with 2.
