title: Innovative sensitizer DiPBI outperforms PCBM.
abstract: A new photorefractive (PR) material sensitized with a novel functional unit DiPBI is prepared based on the guest/host approach. This unique mixture exhibits strong absorption in the whole range of visible light. Moreover, the photorefractive performance as well as PR speed is improved by far compared to the widely used sensitizer PCBM.
