Non-symmetric Half-Fused B←N Coordinated Diketopyrrolopyrrole Building Block for n-type Semiconducting Polymers.

The development of conjugated polymers with high semiconducting performance and high reliability is of great significance for flexible electronics. Herein, we developed a new type of electron-accepting building block; i.e.

Self-Doping Naphthalene Diimide Conjugated Polymers for Flexible Unipolar n-Type OTFTs.

The development of high-performance organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) materials is vital for flexible electronics. Numerous OTFTs are so far reported but obtaining high-performance and reliable OTFTs simultaneously for flexible electronics is still challenging. Herein, it is reported that self-doping in conjugated polymer enables high unipolar n-type charge mobility in flexible OTFTs, as well as good operational/ambient stability and bending resistance.

Hyperbranched Diketopyrrolopyrrole-based Polymers Constructed via Linear Side-Chains towards Organic Field-Effect Transistors.

Conjugated polymers with high charge mobilities have drawn increasing attention in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) in recent years. However, OFETs of conjugated polymers with high mobility and good device stability remain a challenge. In this article, we report a hyperbranched polymer approach to improve the charge mobility and device stability.
