Naphthodithiophene‐Diketopyrrolopyrrole‐Based donor–Acceptor alternating π‐Conjugated polymers for Organic thin‐Film transistors

Novel naphtho[1,2‐b:5,6‐b′]dithiophene (NDT) and diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)‐containing donor‐acceptor conjugated polymers (PNDTDPPs) with different branched side chains were synthesized via Pd(0)‐catalyzed Stille coupling reaction. Octyldodecyl (OD) and dodecylhexadecyl (DH) groups were tethered to the DPP units as the side chains. The soluble fraction of PNDTDPP‐OD polymer in chloroform has much lower molecular weight than that of PNDTDPP‐DH polymer. PNDTDPP‐DH polymer bearing relatively longer DH side chains exhibited much better charge‐transport behavior than PNDTDPP‐OD polymer with shorter OD side chains. The thermally annealed PNDTDPP‐DH polymer thin films exhibited an outstanding charge carrier mobility of ～1.32 cm² V^?1 s^?1 (I_on/I_off ～ 10⁸) measured under ambient conditions, which is almost six times higher than that of thermally annealed PNDTDPP‐OD polymer thin films. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Enhancing the healing ability and charge transport thermal stability of a diketopyrrolopyrrole based conjugated polymer by incorporating coumarin groups in the side chains

In this paper, we present a new design strategy for healable polymeric semiconductors, which are demanding for the future flexible electronics, by incorporating coumarin groups in the polymer side chains. The selection of coumarin groups is based on the fact that photo-dimerization can occur to coumarins upon UV light irradiation, thus side chains of conjugated polymers with coumarins can be cross-linked. The photo-crosslinking of side chains has negligible effect on the thin film morphology and interchain packing order for the DPP-based conjugated polymer PDPP4T-DCM with coumarins in the side chains. However, the photo-crosslinking can facilitate the repair of the mechanically damaged thin film of PDPP4T-DCM and the recovery of the semiconducting properties. Additionally, the photo-crosslinking due to the coumarins in the side chains can lock thin film morphology and thus improve the thermal stability of charge transport.     

Side-chain tunability of furan-containing low-band-gap polymers provides control of structural order in efficient solar cells

The solution-processability of conjugated polymers in organic solvents has classically been achieved by modulating the size and branching of alkyl substituents appended to the backbone. However, these substituents impact structural order and charge transport properties in thin-film devices. As a result, a trade-off must be found between material solubility and insulating alkyl content. It was recently shown that the substitution of furan for thiophene in the backbone of the polymer PDPP2FT significantly improves polymer solubility, allowing for the use of shorter branched side chains while maintaining high device efficiency. In this report, we use PDPP2FT to demonstrate that linear alkyl side chains can be used to promote thin-film nanostructural order. In particular, linear side chains are shown to shorten π-π stacking distances between backbones and increase the correlation lengths of both π-π stacking and lamellar spacing, leading to a substantial increase in the efficiency of bulk heterojunction solar cells.     

Polymorphism of a semi-crystalline diketopyrrolopyrrole-terthiophene polymer

Few semiconducting polymers are known that possess more than one semi-crystalline structure. Guidelines for rationalizing or creating polymorphism in these materials do not exist. Two different semi-crystalline polymorphs, β₁ and β₂, and an amorphous α phase have recently been identified for alternating diketopyrrolopyrrole-quaterthiophene copolymers (PDPP4T). The polymorphs differ structurally by the π–π stacking distance, and electronically by the optical bandgap and charge carrier mobility. Here we investigate the corresponding terthiophene (PDPP3T) derivatives, to study the effect of the relative orientation of adjacent DPP units on the polymorphism. In PDPP3T, the relative orientation of DPP units alternates along the chain, while in PDPP4T it is constant. We show that the two polymorphs, β₁ and β₂, can also be generated for a PDPP3T polymer in solution and thin film. Interestingly, compared to PDPP4T, more solvents can induce the two distinct semi-crystalline polymorphs for PDPP3T via a β₁ → α → β₂ polymorphic transition.     

Synthesis of basic molecular brushes: ATRP of 4-vinylpyridine in organic media

A poly(2-(2-bromopropionyloxy)ethyl methacrylate) (PBPEM) was used as macroinitiator in the synthesis of molecular brushes with poly(4-vinylpyridine) side chains, (P(BPEM-g-4VP). Atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) was employed as the polymerization technique. The polymerizations were carried out in DMF at 30 °C using a copper-chloride-based ATRP catalyst, which converted all the dormant polymer chain ends to alkyl chloride groups, thus minimizing branching and crosslinking, which occurred when a copper bromide-based catalyst was employed. Tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine was selected as the ligand due to the high activity of its Cu^I complex in ATRP as well as its strong binding to both Cu^I and Cu^II, which prevented competitive complexation of the monomer or polymer to the metal center. In order to prevent crosslinking via radical coupling, the monomer conversion was kept low (under 3%) and the alkyl chloride end groups of P4VP side chains were converted to alkoxyamines upon activation followed by a reaction with TEMPO radical. Dynamic light scattering measurements showed the hydrodynamic diameter (D_H) of the brushes was pH-dependent. Aggregation of single P(BPEM-g-4VP) brushes in water was very pronounced at high pH values but was observed even when the amount of added HCl was enough to completely protonate the pyridine units (D_H = 278 nm).     

Responsive Gels with the Polymer Containing Alternating Naphthalene Diimide and Fluorinated Alkyl Chains: Gel Formation and Responsiveness as Well as Electrical Conductivity of Polymer Thin Films

A new electroactive polymer 1 with alternating NDI (naphthalene diimide) moieties and fluorinated alkyl chains was prepared and characterized. Gels of polymer 1 were formed in several solvents. Interestingly, gels of polymer 1 exhibited responsiveness toward N₂H₄, F^? and CN^?. Absorption and ESR spectroscopic studies revealed that such responsiveness is owing to the reduction of NDI moieties into the respective NDI^.?. In addition, thin films of polymer 1 were easily prepared with spin‐coating technique and the electrical conductivity of thin films reached 52.4 S/m after exposure to N₂H₄ vapor.     

Fluoro-substituted DPP-bisthiophene conjugated polymer with azides in the side chains as ambipolar semiconductor and photoresist

Photoresists are essential for the fabrication of flexible electronics through all-photolithographic processes. Single component semiconducting photoresist exhibits both semiconducting and photo-patterning properties, and as a result, the device fabrication process can be simplified. However, the design of semiconducting polymeric photoresist with ambipolar semiconducting property remains challenging. In this paper, we report a single component semiconducting photoresist (PFDPPF4T-N₃) by incorporating azide groups and noncovalent conformation locks into the side alkyl chains and conjugated backbones of a diketopyrrolopyrrole-based conjugated polymer, respectively. The results reveal that PFDPP4FT-N₃ exhibits ambipolar semiconducting property with hole and electron mobilities up to 1.12 and 1.17 cm² V^?1 s^?1, respectively. Moreover, field effect transistors with the individual photo-patterned thin films of PFDPPF4T-N₃ also show ambipolar semiconducting behavior with hole and electron mobilities up to 0.66 and 0.80 cm² V^?1 s^?1, respectively. These results offer a simple yet effective design strategy for high-performance single component semiconducting photoresists, which hold great potential for flexible electronics processed by all photolithography.

     

Significant Effect of the Flexibility of Bridging Alkyl Chains on the Proximity of Stacked Porphyrin and Phthalocyanine Conjugated with a Fourfold Rotaxane Linkage

Spatial distance is an important factor in controlling the functional interactions between molecular units in a conjugate; therefore, the bridging unit has been closely examined. Here, we examined the effect of the flexibility of bridging alkyl chains on the proximity of stacked porphyrin and phthalocyanine conjugated with a fourfold rotaxane linkage. We found that closely stacking two π systems requires bridging alkyl chains above a certain length, and the shorter bridges hinder stacking because of their lower flexibility. The stacking distance between porphyrin and phthalocyanine in the conjugate with decyl (C₁₀) chains was estimated to be 4.03 Å and showed a unique physical character arising from short-distance interactions. The longer alkyl chains minimized steric restriction inside the fourfold rotaxane and allowed efficient communication between the porphyrin and phthalocyanine units. This is due to the flexibility of the side chains.     

Arylacetylene‐Substituted Naphthalene Diimides with Dual Functions: Optical Waveguides and n‐Type Semiconductors

New arylacetylene‐substituted naphthalene diimides (NDIs) 1–6 , with both light‐emitting and semiconducting functions, are reported. Among them, the crystal structure of 1 was determined. On the basis of their reduction potentials and thin‐film absorption spectra, the HOMO/LUMO energies of these modified NDIs were estimated. The results reveal that their HOMO/LUMO energies are slightly affected by the flanking aryl groups. The emission colors of these NDIs vary from green to red, and interestingly, they show aggregation‐induced emission enhancement behavior with fluorescence quantum yields reaching 9.86 % in the solid state. Microrods of 1 , 3 , and 5 show typical optical wave‐guiding behavior with relatively low optical‐loss coefficients. Organic field‐effect transistors with thin films of these NDIs were fabricated with conventional techniques. The results indicate that thin films of 2 , 4 , and 6 , with long and branched alkyl chains, show air‐stable n‐type semiconducting properties with electron mobilities of up to 0.035 cm² V^?1 s^?1 after thermal annealing, whereas 1 , 3 , and 5 , with short alkyl chains, behave as n‐type semiconductors under a nitrogen atmosphere with electron mobilities of up to 0.075 cm² V^?1 s^?1 after thermal annealing.     

New carbazole‐based conjugated polymers containing pyridylvinyl thiophene units for polymer solar cell applications: Morphological stabilization through hydrogen bonding

We have synthesized two conjugated polymers ( P1 , P2 ) containing alternating electron‐donating and ‐accepting units, based on N‐alkyl‐2,7‐carbazole, 4,7‐di(thiophen‐5‐yl)‐2,1,3‐benzothiadiazole and 3‐[2‐(4‐pyridyl)vinyl]thiophene units. These conjugated polymers contained different contents of pyridine units, which were incorporated to form hydrogen bonds with [6,6]‐phenyl‐C₆₁‐butyric acid (PCBA). When these hydrogen bonding interactions were present in the polymer thin films, their thermal stability improved; deterioration, which occurred through aggregation of PCBA methyl ester after lengthy annealing times, was also suppressed. The power conversion efficiency of a device incorporating the film featuring hydrogen bonding interactions remained at 75% of the original value after thermal annealing for 5 h at 140 °C. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
