Design Approaches of Imide Based Organic Solar Cells with Computational Chemistry State-of-the-art Density Functional Theory: A Perspective Review

Abstract

Imide-based organic solar cells with their theoretical calculations for small molecule based organic solar cells are highly significant for designing and predicting the series of small organic solar cells with non-fullerene acceptors. In this perspective review, we have provided the series of details about the organic and inorganic solar cells and why the organic solar cells are highly significant to avoid the cost issues and large experimental precautions. Secondly, we have also provided the deep guess about the density functional theory and their role in the theoretical prediction of the highly reliable tools for optoelectronic properties. We hope that this perspective report about the organic solar cells with imide central units and details about the density functional theory opens the new ways for thinking and designing the large number of various others optoelectronic materials.
