Product Description of Copper(II) Phthalocyanine CAS#147-14-8
Copper(II) phthalocyanine (CuPc) has been used as an electron donor together with fullerene-C60 or phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) in vacuum-deposited organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices. Early power conversion efficiencies of approximately 1% were obtained, and this value was notably increased to about 4% when a pentacene-doped CuPc layer was introduced.

Product Usage
Copper(II) phthalocyanine plays an important role in the study of photosensitizer chemistry, especially in areas such as uniform polymerization, luminescent chemistry, and spectrophotometric analysis, as well as in organic synthesis and polymerization processes. It is widely applied in products including enamels, linoleum, printing inks, plastics, and rubber materials. In addition, photoisomerizable phthalocyanines are used in rewritable CD and DVD printing technologies.
