Abstract

This review aimed to summarize the current knowledge regarding dibenzofulvene derivatives (DBF) investigated for photovoltaics and organic electronics applications. The work begins with a detailed analysis of the synthesis and modification methods for dibenzofulvene derivatives’ structure. Then, the physicochemical properties (thermal, electrochemical, and optical) of the selected compounds are discussed in detail. Moreover, this article also presents the DFT calculations performed so far. Finally, the review presents the latest research on the applications of dibenzofulvene derivatives as dyes for DSSC cells, hole transport materials (HTMs) for perovskite solar cells (PSCs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and luminescent and electrochromic materials. Considering the above, this review may be helpful when designing new organic compounds for photovoltaic and organic electronic applications.
