Özet

Polymers with conjugation have been developed into extremely practical materials in place of inorganic ones. These materials have received a lot of research attention because of their semiconducting characteristics, which are comparable to those of their inorganic counterparts, as well as their ease of solution processing ability, which promotes the development of inexpensive organic electronic devices with mechanical flexibility [1]. The organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), photovoltaic cells (PVs), and other optoelectronic devices find interest in these materials [2]. Polythiophene, among all the conjugated polymers, has unique properties such as lightweight, environmentalstability, ease of modification and processability via synthesis parameter adjustment. Many works on poly(3-hexylthiophene-2, 5-diyl(P3HT)thin films have been achieved like ZnO/P3HT hybrid photodetectors [3], thin layers of P3HT on the glass and Silicon substrate by spin-coating process [4]. The band gap within the visible spectrum, high electrical conductivity, and good chemical stability under normal conditions are all characteristics of the conjugated polymer P3HT, as previously mentioned by Kim et al. [5]. Prior analyses have shown P3HT to be a promising donor material with promising properties [6, 7]. Our research introduces novelty through simulation assessment of electrical properties along with a comparison with experimental data and intense transmittance to enhance the depth of the study.
