Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="adma201403080-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>A high molecular weight donor–acceptor conjugated polymer</bold> is synthesized using the Suzuki polycondensation method. Using this polymer, a single‐junction bulk‐heterojunction solar cell is fabricated giving a power conversion efficiency of 9.4% using a fullerene‐modified ZnO interlayer at the cathode contact. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh3jjkrkt9" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
