Revealing the Mechanism of Doping of spiro-MeOTAD via Zn Complexation in the Absence of Oxygen and Light

In this study, a new mechanism for doping of spiro-MeOTAD by Zn(TFSI)2 is revealed, which is completely different from the mechanism induced by LiTFSI. The oxidation of spiro-MeOTAD is facilitated ...
