3-Hexylthiophene is the intermediate for the synthesis of poly(3-hexylthiophene), referred as P3HT. To date, it is the most studied polymer for polymer solar cells. The efficiency of a P3HT/PCBM solar cell is typically 4-5 %, but with new fullerene materials developed to closely match the energy levels of P3HT (HOMO 5.0 eV, LUMO 3.0 eV), device performances have been pushed to 6.5% [1].
The synthesis of P3HT is relatively easy and short, only a 3-4 step synthesis is required [2, 3, 4]. The challenge of P3HT is that it only absorbs a narrow band of solar spectrum, so it has little room for improvement in terms of performance efficiency.

To the best of our knowledge the technical information provided here is accurate. However, Ossila assume no liability for the accuracy of this information. The values provided here are typical at the time of manufacture and may vary over time and from batch to batch.
Ossila was founded in 2009 by organic electronics research scientists with the aim of providing the components, equipment and materials to enable faster and smarter research and discovery. We have grown a lot since then and are proud to now supply our products to over 1000 different institutions in over 67 countries across the world.
Having spent many years both in industry and academia developing organic and thin film LEDs, photovoltaics and FETs, we know how long it takes to develop a reliable and efficient device fabrication and testing process. As such, we have developed packages of products and services to enable researchers to jump-start their organic electronics or materials research development program.
Our research scientists have significant experience in the processing of materials into LEDs, PVs and FETs, and amongst our team of physicists, chemists and engineers we have a huge collection of knowledge on thin film processing, electronics and characterisation. The vision behind Ossila is to share this experience with academic and industrial researchers alike and to make their research more efficient. By providing products and services that take the hard work out of the device fabrication process, and the equipment to enable accurate, rapid testing, we can free scientists to focus on what they do best - science.
