Abstract

Particle swarm optimization has been integrated with negative factor counting technique and inverse iteration method for efficient tailoring of binary low band gap donor-acceptor-donor copolymers. The structures investigated in this study include pyrrole and silole donor moieties in combination with carbonyl and dicyanomethylene acceptor groups respectively. A comparative examination of the electronic properties of all the possible donor and acceptor combinations has been done using the band structure results derived from ab-initio Hartree Fock crystal orbital calculations. The pyrrole-carbonyl donor-acceptor packaging is found to return lowest band gap combination. The DOS distributions of the investigated binary D-A-D
