Fullerene derivatives for solar energy conversion

Part I. Photoresponsive self-assembled dyads - mimics of natural photosynthetic antenna

FPy-06-01	FPy-06-02	FPy-06-03
FPy-06-04	FPy-06-05

Excitation of dyads by light generates long-lived charge separated states. See review M. E. El-Khouly, O. Ito, P. M. Smith, F. D'Souza, J. Photochem. Photobiology C, 2004, 5, 79-104.
A range of other parent Fullerene ligands and donor-acceptor Dyads are available. Just request for an option of your choice.

Part II. Materials for plastic solar cells: Fullerene malonic acid esters.

FME-06-01	FME-06-02
FME-06-03	FME-06-04

These materials are used in organic solar cells in the blends with polyconjugated polymers.
Derivatives of /70/Fullerene are available, other substituents at the ester functions are available.
