<b>Synthesis and characterization of poly[3-(2’,5’-diheptyloxy-phenyl)thiophene] for use in photoelectrochemical cells</b>

Poly[3-(2',5'-diheptyloxyphenyl)thiophene], PDHOPT, has been prepared electrochemically from its monomer for solar cell application. PDHOPT exhibits a band gap of 2.1 eV. The redox properties of PDHOPT were characterized using cyclic voltammetry. The estimated energy levels of the highest...
