For the purpose of developing flexible organic photovoltaic devices, we have fabricated two flexible devices using 5-formyl- 2,2′：5′,2″：5″,2′″-quaterthiophene （4T-CHO）, 5-formyl-2,2′：5′, 2″：5″,2′″：5′″,2″″-quinquethiophene （5T-CHO） and 3,4,9,10-perylenetertracarboxylic dianhydride （PTCDA）. The PET-ITO/4T-CHO/PTCDA/A1 device has an open circuit voltage （Voc） of 1.56 V, photoelectric conversion efficiency of 0.77%. The PET-ITO/5T-CHO/PTCDA/A1 device has a Voc of 1.70 V, photoelectric conversion efficiency of 0.84%. The two flexible devices have high Voc （1.56 and 1.70 V）. It is possible that intermolecular hydrogen bonding between -CHO group of nT-CHO and carboxylic dianhydride of PTCDA contributes to enhancing the efficiency by promoting interfacial electron transfer and eliminating the subconducting band trap sites.

For the purpose of developing organic photovoltaic devices with good performance characteristics, we have fabricated two devices using 4T-CHO, 5T-CHO and PTCDA. The ITO/4T-CHO/PTCDA/Al device has a Voc of 2.45 V and photoelectric conversion efficiency of 2.76%. The ITO/ST-CHO/PTCDA/Al device has a Voc of 2.1 3V and photoelectric conversion efficiency of 2.90%. The two devices have higher Voc （2.45 and 2.13 V）. It is possible that intennolecular hydrogen bonding between -CHO group of nT-CHO and carboxylic dianhydride of PTCDA contribute to enhance the efficiency by promoting interracial electron transfer and eliminating the subconducting band trap sites.
