Abstract
ABSTRACTThe structural, optoelectronic and charge transport properties of porphyrin and its analogues are investigated using the density functional theoretical methods. Most of the above molecules absorb in visible region with high light harvesting efficiency. The small energy gap between the frontier molecular orbitals (FMOs) suggests that porphyrin and its derivatives can be used in organic semiconductors. Electronic properties such as ionization potential, electron affinity, reorganization energy and the charge transfer integral are calculated to obtain their charge transport properties. It is revealed that porphyrin, porphyrazine and phthalocyanine act as hole transporters, whereas corrole and corrolazine act as electron transporters.
