In this work, two new C70 isomers, α and β bis(2-(thiophen-2-yl)ethyl)-C70-fullerene mono-adducts (DTC70), were synthesized, characterized and used as electron transporting materials (ETMs) in perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Our results show that the α isomer improves both the J
sc
and FF values of the devices, when compared to the results for the β...
During polyketide and fatty acid biosynthesis, the growing acyl chain is attached to the acyl carrier protein via a thioester linkage. The acyl carrier protein interacts with other enzymes that perform chain elongation and chain modification on the bound acyl chain. Most type I polyketide synthases and fatty acid synthases contain only one acyl car...
The biosynthetic and endocytic pathways of secretory cells are characterized by progressive luminal acidification, a process which is crucial for posttranslational modifications and membrane trafficking. This progressive fall in luminal pH is mainly achieved by the vacuolar‐type‐H⁺ ATPase (V‐ATPase). V‐ATPases are large, evolutionarily ancient rota...
The synthesis of new C60 fullerene derivatives functionalized with thiophene moieties as well as with electron donating or electron withdrawing groups, bromine (Br) or cyano (CN), respectively, using Bingel reactions is reported. The synthesized derivatives were used as the electron transporting materials (ETMs) in inverted perovskite solar cells (...
The effect of utilizing a pure cis-α-dimethoxy carbonyl fulleropyrrolidine C70 (DMEC70) isomer as the electron transporting material (ETM) in inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs) was evaluated. As-prepared C70mono-adduct products are mixtures of regioisomers and the interest was to evaluate these independently as ETMs. Three different cis-DMEC70...
Fullerenes and related carbon based derivatives have shown a growing relevance in biology and medicine, mainly due to the unique electronic and structural properties that make them excellent candidates for...
The unique properties of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite materials make them promising candidates for developing next-generation photovoltaic cells for commercial applications to compete with silicon solar cells. Inverted planar structure perovskite solar cells (PSCs), due to their low temperature precessing and lack of hysteretic problems, are...
