Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an optoelectronic component having at least one photoactive layer in the form of a planar heterojunction (PHJ), wherein the at least one photoactive layer contains a chemical compound of general formula I, and the present invention further relates to the use of such a compound of general formula I in an optoelectronic component.

Background Art

[0002] Optoelectronic components can be displays, data storage media or transistors, but can also be photovoltaic devices, especially solar cells and photodetectors, which have a photoactive layer in which electron-hole pairs (excitons) are formed by the incidence of electromagnetic waves. The excitons reach an interface where the electrons and holes are separated from each other by diffusion. The material that accepts electrons is called an acceptor, and the material that accepts holes is called a donor. Organic optoelectronic components utilize the photovoltaic effect to achieve the conversion of electromagnetic waves into an electric current. For this type of conversion of electromagnetic waves, an absorbing material showing good absorption characteristics is required.

[0003] Organic optoelectronic components are known from the prior art.

[0004] Patent Document 1 discloses a photoactive component, especially a solar cell, consisting of one or more organic layers of pi, ni and / or pin diodes laminated on each other.

[0005] Patent Document 2 discloses the structure of an organic solar cell as a pin or nip diode. A pin solar cell typically consists of a substrate on which a transparent electrode is disposed, a p-layer, an i-layer, an n-layer, and a counter electrode. In this context, n and p respectively mean n- and p-doping, which result in an increase in the free electron / hole density in the thermal equilibrium state. Such layers should be mainly understood as transport layers. The term "i-layer" refers to an undoped layer (intrinsic layer) having a single absorption material or a mixture of two or more absorption materials (planar heterojunction). Here, one or more i-layers can be composed of a mixture of two or more materials (bulk heterojunction) containing at least one donor and at least one acceptor. In particular, an absorption material, that is, an absorber, means a compound that absorbs light within a specific wavelength range. Thus, in particular, an absorber layer means a layer in an optoelectronic component containing at least one absorption material.

[0006] In the prior art, numerous polymeric and non-polymeric absorption materials for organic optoelectronic devices in the red and near-infrared (NIR) regions of approximately 600 to approximately 1400 nm have been disclosed. In the field of non-polymeric absorption materials, in particular, materials from the BODIPY substance classification have been found to be suitable in the near-infrared spectral region, which means that suitable energy levels, and thus high optoelectromotive force, can be achieved simultaneously in the long-wavelength absorption region.

[0007] Patent Document 3 discloses an organic electronic component comprising at least one organic layer between two electrodes, and the organic layer contains at least one compound from the group of BODIPY.

[0008] Non-Patent Document 1 discloses the synthesis of meso-pyridyl-substituted BODIPY compounds and their optical and electrochemical properties.

[0009] Absorbers known from the prior art cannot be used with sufficient efficiency for commercial use in planar heterojunctions of electronic components. Known absorption materials exhibit particularly low efficiency. The efficiency of an organic photovoltaic device depends on factors including the absorption characteristics of the organic material in the photoactive layer, i.e., the absorption material. Known absorption materials are suitable for the photoactive layer in an organic photovoltaic device, i.e., an organic solar cell, but there is a need for improvement in the absorption characteristics of the absorption material.

[0010] However, planar heterojunctions (PHJs) have the drawback of not being suitable for use in electronic components, particularly photovoltaic devices, which is especially because, presumably as a result of the limited exciton diffusion distance in such layers, the efficiency of the photovoltaic device has been greatly limited. Therefore, hitherto, PHJ cells have not been an option for industrial use in photovoltaic devices.

[0011] However, it would be desirable to use PHJs in photovoltaic devices in order to improve the efficiency of the photovoltaic devices and simplify their manufacture. In particular, there is a need for absorption materials that have high absorption in the red and near-infrared spectral regions and thus result in high efficiency in PHJs. In a BHJ, each component must form microdomains interconnected by a closed percolation path; otherwise, charge transport does not occur. Here, a particularly relevant factor is the size of the individual microdomains, and if the individual domains are too large, it leads to a loss of photocurrent. The optimal process parameters for its manufacture are difficult to achieve, and thus the industrially achievable efficiency of BHJs is inferior to what is possible under idealized laboratory conditions. In contrast, PHJs have significantly lower requirements for process parameters because they have fewer degrees of freedom to control the morphology of the individual layers compared to BHJs.

(“meso-Pyridyl BODIPYs with tunable chemical, optical and electrochemical properties”, New Journal of Chemistry, 2013, 37(9), 2663-2668) [Non-Patent Document 2] Li et al. (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2017, 139(39), 13636-13639) [Summary of the Invention] [Problems to be Solved by the Invention]

[0014] Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an optoelectronic component having at least one photoactive layer in the form of a planar heterojunction containing a chemical compound of general formula I, and to provide the use of the chemical compound of general formula I in the photoactive layer in the form of a planar heterojunction in an optoelectronic component, wherein the above disadvantages do not occur, and in particular, the use of a planar heterojunction is possible without limiting the efficiency of the photovoltaic device during the process. [Means for Solving the Problems]

[0015] This object is achieved by the subject matter of the independent claims. Advantageous configurations are apparent from the dependent claims.

[0016] This object is achieved in particular by providing an optoelectronic component, preferably a photovoltaic cell, having a layer system with a base electrode, a top electrode, and at least one photoactive layer, the layer system being arranged between the base electrode and the top electrode, where at least one photoactive layer is in the form of a planar heterojunction (PHJ), and where at least one photoactive layer in the form of a planar heterojunction comprises at least one chemical compound of general formula I

Chemical formula

[0017] In particular, substitution means the replacement of H by a substituent. In particular, a substituent means any atom and atomic group other than hydrogen, preferably a halogen, preferably F, Cl or Br, particularly preferably F, an alkyl group, where the alkyl group can be linear or branched, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group, an amino group, an alkoxy group, a thioalkoxy group, an aryl group, or a heteroaryl group.

[0018] In particular, a heteroatom means, in particular, with respect to the heteroatom in general formula I, an atom selected from the group consisting of O, S, Se and N.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Y1 is selected from the group consisting of N and CR 21 wherein R 21 is H, C1-C4-alkyl, or a halogen, preferably F or Cl; Y2 is selected from the group consisting of N and CR 22 wherein R 22 is H, alkyl, O-alkyl, S-alkyl, a halogen such as preferably F or Cl, CN, CF3 or SF5; and Y3 is selected from the group consisting of N and CR 23 wherein R 23 is H, C1-C4-alkyl, or a halogen, preferably F or Cl.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, R 1 and R 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of H, F, Cl, Br, CN, CF3, CHF2, CH2F, C1-C4-alkyl, O-C1-C4-alkyl, S-C1-C4-alkyl and N-(C1-C4-alkyl)2, provided that at least R 1 or R 2 is Br, Cl or CF3.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in the substituted alkenyl, O-alkyl or S-alkyl at R3 and R5, the hydrogen atom is preferably substituted with a group selected from an unsubstituted and substituted heterocyclic 5-membered or 6-membered ring having at least one heteroatom selected from S, O and N, and an unsubstituted and substituted monocyclic 6-membered ring.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, R 3 and / or R 5 In, the unsubstituted or substituted heterocyclic 5-membered or 6-membered ring, or the unsubstituted or substituted monocyclic 6-membered ring is preferably further condensed to at least one further heterocyclic 5-membered or 6-membered ring, or at least one monocyclic 6-membered ring, preferably an unsubstituted or substituted heterocyclic 5-membered ring having at least one heteroatom selected from S and O.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, R 3 and R 4 , and / or, R 5 and R 6 In each case, together, preferably form an unsubstituted or halogen-, alkyl-, O-alkyl-, aryl- and / or heteroaryl-substituted heterocyclic 5-membered or 6-membered ring having at least one heteroatom selected from S, O and N, or an unsubstituted or halogen-, alkyl-, O-alkyl-, aryl- and / or heteroaryl-substituted monocyclic 6-membered ring.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, R 3 and R 4 , and / or, R 5 and R 6 The unsubstituted or substituted heterocyclic 5-membered or 6-membered ring, or the unsubstituted or substituted monocyclic 6-membered ring formed between has no further condensation.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, R 4 and R 6is independently selected from the group consisting of H, halogen, CN, and unsubstituted and substituted alkyl. In a particularly preferred embodiment, R 4 and R 6 are H.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, R 4 and R 6 are the same, and / or R 3 and R 5 are the same.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Z1 is the same as Z2, R 3 is the same as R 5 and R 4 is the same as R 6 and the same.

[0028] In particular, an optoelectronic component means a photovoltaic device having at least one organic photoactive layer, and the organic photoactive layer contains at least one compound of the present invention. The organic photovoltaic device utilizes the photovoltaic effect and enables the conversion of electromagnetic waves, particularly within the visible light wavelength range, into an electric current. In this context, the term "photoactive" means the conversion of light energy into electrical energy. In contrast to inorganic solar cells, in the case of organic photovoltaic devices, free charge carriers are not directly generated by light, but first excitons are formed, i.e., an electrically neutral excited state (bound electron-hole pair) is formed. Only in a second step are these excitons separated into free charge carriers at a photoactive donor-acceptor junction and then contribute to the flow of current.

[0029] The optoelectronic component of the present invention has advantages compared to the prior art. Advantageously, it is possible to provide an improved absorber for planar heterojunctions in optoelectronic components. Due to the limited diffusion distance in planar heterojunctions that limits the efficiency of optoelectronic components based on planar heterojunctions, planar heterojunctions have not been usable without difficulties until now. However, compared to bulk heterojunctions, the use of planar heterojunctions in optoelectronic components is desirable because the manufacturing is easy. Advantageously, the compound of the present invention enables an improvement in EQE max (maximum external quantum efficiency) in optoelectronic components having planar heterojunctions. Advantageously, the compound of the present invention enables the use of planar heterojunctions in commercially available optoelectronic components that can be manufactured particularly more easily compared to bulk heterojunctions. Advantageously, absorption materials for the red and near-infrared spectral regions having high absorption intensity and particularly good evaporability are provided for planar heterojunctions, and these can also be processed without decomposition particularly even under reduced pressure. Advantageously, the configuration of the groups at the meso position of the BODIPY basic skeleton brings about a preferred spatial arrangement of the compound particularly in the photoactive layer. The improved effect of the PHJ cell seems to be due to an increase in the exciton diffusion distance. Advantageously, the compound of the present invention shows very good properties in planar heterojunctions (PHJ), particularly enabling a larger layer thickness, and as a result, enabling a higher efficiency of the solar cell.

The solution of Intermediate B was introduced into a dropping funnel and slowly added to the toluene within 15 minutes while heating under reflux. The resulting solution was heated for a further 15 minutes. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to obtain a brown solid as the crude product. The crude product was suspended in 8 vol of petroleum ether and treated with ultrasound. The resulting precipitate was filtered off, washed with petroleum ether and dried under reduced pressure to obtain pyrrole ester C.

[0124] Basic procedure according to Step 3-B: Pyrrole acid D (1.00 equivalent) was dissolved in 21 vol of ethanolamine. The mixture was heated to 150 °C and stirred for 4 hours. After cooling to 50 °C, 32 vol of heptane was added. The mixture was further cooled to 10 °C, and the product was filtered off, washed with water and heptane, and dried under reduced pressure to obtain pyrrole E.

[0125] Basic procedure according to Step 4: Pyrrole E (2.00 equivalents) and aldehyde (1.00 equivalent) were dissolved / suspended in 30 vol of dichloromethane. Trifluoroacetic acid (0.10 equivalent) was added dropwise at room temperature, and the mixture was stirred for 3 hours. p-Chloranil (1.05 equivalents) was added dropwise over 5 minutes, and the mixture was mixed at room temperature for 30 minutes. The mixture was diluted with 25 vol of methanol and then concentrated under reduced pressure (40 °C in a water bath) to remove most of the dichloromethane. Then, the resulting suspension was stirred at 0 °C for 90 minutes and then filtered. The isolated solid was washed with cold methanol and dried under reduced pressure to obtain dipyrin F.
