Bent-core mesogens containing 6-oxoverdazyl radical as the angular central unit exhibit rich polymorphism that includes isotropic-isotropic transition, re-entant isotropic (I(re)), and a novel 3D tetragonal (Tet) phases. Surprisingly, the paramagnetic Tet phase interacts linearly with applied electric field and exhibits photoinduced ambipolar charge transport (μ ≈ 10(-3) cm(2) V(-1) s(-1)). Magnetic analysis showed gradual increase of antiferromagnetic interactions upon cooling.

Nonvolatile optoelectronic memories based on organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites have appeared as powerful candidates for next-generation soft electronics. Here, ambipolar SnO transistor-based nonvolatile memories with multibit memory behavior (11 storage states, 120 nC state) and ultralong retention time (>10 s) are demonstrated for which an AlO/two-dimensional Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite (2D PVK) heterostructure dielectric architecture is employed. The unique storage features are attributed to suppressed gate leakage by AlO layer and hopping-like ionic transport in 2D PVK with varying activation energy under different light intensities.

A diazirine-based four-armed cross-linker (4CNN) with a tetrahedron geometry is presented for efficient patterning of polymeric semiconductors by photo-induced carbene insertion. After blending of 4CNN with no more than 3 % (w/w), photo-patterning of p-, n-, and ambipolar semiconducting polymers with side alkyl chains was achieved; regular patterns with size as small as 5 μm were prepared with appropriate photomasks after 365 nm irradiation for just 40 s. The interchain packing order and the thin film morphology were nearly unaltered after the cross-linking and the semiconducting properties of the patterned thin films were mostly retained.

Inspired by the high photoconversion efficiency observed in natural light-harvesting systems, the hierarchical organization of molecular building blocks has gained impetus in the past few decades. Particularly, the molecular arrangement and packing in the active layer of organic solar cells (OSCs) have garnered significant attention due to the decisive role of the nature of donor/acceptor (D/A) heterojunctions in charge carrier generation and ultimately the power conversion efficiency. This review focuses on the recent developments in emergent optoelectronic properties exhibited by self-sorted donor-on-donor/acceptor-on-acceptor arrangement of covalently linked D-A systems, highlighting the ultrafast excited state dynamics of charge transfer and transport.

The molecular structure of polymer electrets is crucial for creating diverse functionalities of organic field-effect transistor (OFET) devices. Herein, a conceptual framework has been applied in this study to design the highly photoresponsive carbazole-based copolymer electret materials for the application of photoresponsive OFET memory. As an electret layer, two 1,8-carbazole-based copolymers were utilized; the consisted of carbazole as the donor group and thiophene as the π-spacer, whereas the was further introduced as an acceptor moiety, benzothiadiazole, for comparison.
