Résumé

In recent years, tremendous growth has been seen for solution-processed bulk heterojunction solar cells (BHJSCs) using fullerene-free molecular acceptors. Herein, we report the synthesis, characterization of a coumarin-based organic semiconducting molecule C1, and its use in BHJSCs as an electron donor. The compound exhibited an absorption band at 472 nm in chloroform solution with an optical energy gap of 2.33 eV. The HOMO/LUMO energy levels of C1 were found to be ideal for use in BHJSCs. Using PC
