Projected global energy demand is widely believed to reach 30 TW by 2050. Currently, fossil fuels collectively represent over 80% of our total energy supply, while only 10% come from renewable sources. To meet future demands, however, we must maximize our use of renewable resources while minimizing our dependence on fossil fuels. While there are many sources of renewable energy, solar energy is one of the most abundant; in fact, the sun delivers up to 67 TW of power annually, which exceeds the projected energy demand in 2050. While there are multiple ways to convert sunlight to electricity, organic photovoltaics (OPVs) has the shortest energy payback time; this is the time required for the PV module to generate the equivalent amount of energy that originally was used to manufacture the PV module. OPVs show promise for light-to-electrical energy conversion with the best performing cells having power conversion efficiencies of 8%, but the theoretical maximum is at 32%. If efficiencies can be increased to even a fraction of the way to &sim;16%, OPVs would be more cost-competitive with their inorganic counterparts.

520 $a Projected global energy demand is widely believed to reach 30 TW by 2050. Currently, fossil fuels collectively represent over 80% of our total energy supply, while only 10% come from renewable sources. To meet future demands, however, we must maximize our use of renewable resources while minimizing our dependence on fossil fuels. While there are many sources of renewable energy, solar energy is one of the most abundant; in fact, the sun delivers up to 67 TW of power annually, which exceeds the projected energy demand in 2050. While there are multiple ways to convert sunlight to electricity, organic photovoltaics (OPVs) has the shortest energy payback time; this is the time required for the PV module to generate the equivalent amount of energy that originally was used to manufacture the PV module. OPVs show promise for light-to-electrical energy conversion with the best performing cells having power conversion efficiencies of 8%, but the theoretical maximum is at 32%. If efficiencies can be increased to even a fraction of the way to &sim;16%, OPVs would be more cost-competitive with their inorganic counterparts.
520 $a However, there are four major challenges in improving OPV performance. These include (a) poor light harvesting, due to a limited range of absorbance of visible light, (b) inefficient exciton splitting into holes and electrons, due to the limited diffusion length of excitons (typically ca. 10 nm), (c) increased recombination of separated charges at the donor/acceptor interface, and (d) inefficient collection of charges at the active layer/electrode interface (i.e. partial electrical shorting). OPVs constructed from conventional materials and architectures involve conflicting design requirements; this makes it impossible to address all four problems simultaneously.
520 $a The projects described in this dissertation involve the design, synthesis, and characterization of a new class of OPV materials that have the potential to overcome the problems with conventional cells. To address problem (a), we incorporated antenna molecules (i.e. perylene diimides) to expand light collection and then transfer energy to the primary chromophores. To address problem (b), we observed that excitons can achieve up to 2,025 hops in a porphyrin-based metal-organic framework (MOF) single crystal within its 3 ns lifetime. By precisely aligning the chromophores in the MOF, we showed that long-distance exciton transport (i.e. ultra-fast, sequential hopping) was consistent with the well-established Forster theory. To address problems (c) and (d), we introduced MOF components one step at a time to optimize optical path length and crystal-thickness. This allowed us to incorporate MOFs (normally bulk crystals) into a MOF film.
520 $a The approach exploited both MOF chemistry and layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly of crystalline MOFs in a highly controlled fashion on functional surfaces. We also incorporated good light-harvesting molecules as struts in MOFs to increase the visible absorption. Designing MOF-based OPVs can provide insight into solar energy conversion. This can potentially lead to much higher efficiencies, based on the simultaneous resolution of the four challenges hindering OPV performance.
