Abstract
A series of thieno[3,2-b]thiophene (TT) flanked para-azaquinodimethane (p-AQM) based quinoidal conjugated polymers PAQM2TT-T, PAQM2TT-BT and PAQM3TT were designed in a strategy to extend the aromatic-quinoidal π-system. The three polymers were synthesized by Stille polycondensation, and their opto-electronic properties and device performance in field-effect transistors have been explored. From absorption spectroscopy, the polymers show low bandgaps (1.54–1.57 eV) and high HOMO energy levels. They exhibit typical p-type behavior according to the results of the characterization of the field-effect transistors with average charge carrier mobilities of 0.08 cm2 V−1 s−1 for PAQM2TT-T, 0.12 cm2 V−1 s−1 for PAQM2TT-BT and 0.05 cm2 V−1 s−1 for PAM3TT. This report presents an alternative π-extended quinoidal-donor strategy to control the molecular design and properties of new p-AQM-based conjugated polymers.
期刊介绍:
This journal is an international medium for the rapid publication of original research papers, short communications and subject reviews dealing with research on and applications of electronic polymers and electronic molecular materials including novel carbon architectures. These functional materials have the properties of metals, semiconductors or magnets and are distinguishable from elemental and alloy/binary metals, semiconductors and magnets.
