About:

This is a CPE Genome Platform for CPE property prediction and design using high-throughput first-principles calculations, machine learning and experimental validations. The conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs) contain an electronically delocalized backbone and pendant groups bearing ionic functionalities. The conjugated backbone endows CPEs with the optical and charge transport properties of organic semiconductors, while the ionic functionalities render CPEs soluble in high dielectric constant media and in particular water. As versatile electronic materials, CPEs have been used as interfacial layers in a variety of flexible electronic devices, such as organic and perovskite photovoltaics, organic light-emitting diodes, thermoelectrics and organic field effect transistors.

To get properties of a specific CPE, please input the name of CPE. Here, CPE is named as Donor-Acceptor-Alkylchain-Functionality, which is originated from the structural components in CPE, including donor, acceptor, alkyl chain and ionic functionality as shown in Fig.1. The available components are summarized in Table 1. Hence, for the example of CPEK in Fig. 1, its name is CPDT-BT-C4-SO3K, and one can use this name to search the properties.
