Electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complexes arise from the reversible association of electron-rich donors and electron-deficient acceptors through weak interactions such as dipole–dipole or halogen bonds.

Solar energy has been recognized as one of the promising green and renewable energy. Thanks to the synergistic innovation of active layer materials and device optimization techniques, organic solar ...

As demand for low-cost, printable photovoltaics grows, nonfused ring electron acceptors (NFREAs) are attractive because they skip lengthy ring-closure steps, but their film-thickness tolerance and ...

Adding charge acceptors can slow electron transfer in some light-activated materials. Chemists from Rice University and The University of Texas at Austin discovered more isn’t always better when it ...
