Cover Story: This review aims to summarize the current knowledge regarding dibenzofulvene derivatives (DBF) investigated for photovoltaics and organic electronics applications. The work begins with a detailed analysis of the synthesis and modification methods for the DBF structure. Then, the physicochemical properties of the selected compounds are discussed in detail. Moreover, this article also presents the DFT calculations performed so far. Finally, this review presents the latest research on the applications of dibenzofulvene derivatives as dyes for DSSC cells, hole transport materials (HTMs) for perovskite solar cells (PSCs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and luminescent and electrochromic materials. This review may be helpful in the design of new organic compounds for photovoltaic and organic electronic applications. View this paper
