Despite the fact that n-corannulene oligomers (n = 1-4) have a variety of electronic and optical properties, including ability to be tuned potential used as light-harvesting materials, there has not been computational assessment their structural, electronic, properties. Herein, evaluation concerned materials regarding potent use in solar cell technology conducted via DFT/CAM-B3LYP M062X/6-311+G level theory. It was observed calculated 1st frequency n-Corannulene were 144.15, 106.36, 48.96 42.21 respectively. Notably, computed cohesive energy value increased number Corannulene units increases while characteristics revealed chemical activity structures rose. Both calculation techniques demonstrate HOMO decreasing LUMO based on external electric field (EF) effect. The findings demonstrated EF intensity increases, gap (Eg/eV |EHOMO-ELUMO|) these molecular systems decreases which can attributed decrease electron transfer barrier. 4-Corannulene showed highest wave length adsorption for investigated compound at 546.18 nm, with oscillator strength 0.2708 lowest transition 2.2700 eV, arising from S0-S1 (H-L) major percentage contribution 93.34 % comparison compounds. We are hopeful this research will help experimental researchers understand n-Corannulene, specifically 4-corannulene, powerful material applications ranging cell, photovoltaic properties many others.
