Making silole photovoltaically active by attaching carbazolyl donor groups to the silolyl acceptor core

• Appending carbazolyl groups to a hexaphenylsilole core yielded thermally and morphologically stable carbazolylsiloles; the silole carrying two carbazolyl peripheral groups showed photovoltaic activity.
