Effect of Alkyl Substituents on 2D and 1D Self-assembly and Photovoltaic Properties of Hydrogen-bonded Oligothiophene Rosettes

Hydrogen-bonding oligothiophene bearing octyl chains self-assembles into extended nanorods via the formation of cyclic hexamer. The nanorods can function as an electron-donating materials for electron-accepting PC71BM in bulk-heterojunction solar cells.
