Zone-refinement effect in small molecule-polymer blend semiconductors for organic thin-film transistors

The blend films of small-molecule semiconductors with insulating polymers exhibit not only excellent solution processability but also superior performance characteristics in organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) over those of neat small-molecule semiconductors. To understand the underlying mechanism, we studied triethylsilylethynyl anthradithiophene (TESADT) with small amounts of impurity formed by weak UV exposure. OTFTs with neat impure TESADT had drastically reduced field-effect mobility (<10(-5) cm(2)/(V s)), and a disappearance of the high-temperature crystal phase was observed for neat impure TESADT. However, the mobility of the blend films of the UV-exposed TESADT with poly(α-methylstyrene) (PαMS) is recovered to that of a fresh TESADT-PαMS blend (0.040 cm(2)/(V s)), and the phase transition characteristics partly return to those of fresh TESADT films. These results are corroborated by OTFT results on "aged" TIPS-pentacene. These observations, coupled with the results of neutron reflectivity study, indicate that the formation of a vertically phase-separated layer of crystalline small-molecule semiconductors allows the impurity species to remain preferentially in the adjacent polymer-rich layer. Such a "zone-refinement effect" in blend semiconductors effectively removes the impurity species that are detrimental to organic electronic devices from the critical charge-transporting interface region.     

Update: Empirical determinations of the effective absorption coefficients for the NO γ-bands at 2259A and the ν3-fundamental of N2O at 4.52 μ [JQSRT 21, 475 (1979)]

Used of the revised Voigt parameter aT/p = (2150±200)°K/atm for argon-broadened NO γ-bands introduces no corrections into our previously published kinetics data but leads to a high revised effective value f₀₀=g₀₀f=7.34×10^-4 (+29%, - 16%) for the (0, 0)-band.     

Electron scattering from 70Ge and 72Ge

Cross sections have been measured for the elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons from ⁷⁰Ge and ⁷²Ge for momentum transfers from 0.65 to 1.14 fm^?1. Values for the parameters of a Fermi type ground-state charge distribution were obtained from a phase shift analysis of the elastic cross sections. The rms charge radius corresponding to these parameters is 4.07±0.02 fm for ⁷⁰Ge and 4.05±0.03 fm for ⁷²Ge. Using DWBA analysis the reduced transition probabilities for the electroexcitation of the 2₁⁺ and 3₁^? states were found to be: B(E2, ω)↑ = 19.7±1.2, 26.8±2.0 W.u.; B(E3, ω)↑ = 36±5, 37±7 W.u. for ⁷⁰Ge and ⁷²Ge respectively. The J^π = 3^? assignments for the state at 2.562 MeV in ⁷⁰Ge and 2.515 MeV in ⁷²Ge are confirmed.     

Complete relative stereochemistry of multiple stereocenters using only residual dipolar couplings

Residual dipolar couplings (RDCs), in combination with molecular order matrix calculations, were used to unambiguously determine the complete relative stereochemistry of an organic compound with five stereocenters. Three simple one-dimensional experiments were utilized for the measurements of (13)C-(1)H, (13)C-(19)F, (19)F-(1)H, and (1)H-(1)H RDCs. The order matrix calculation was performed on each chiral isomer independently. The fits were evaluated by the comparison of the root-mean-square deviation (rmsd) of calculated and measured RDCs. The order tensor simulations based on two different sets of RDC data collected with phage and bicelles are consistent. The resulting stereochemical assignments of the stereocenters obtained from using only RDCs are in perfect agreement with those obtained from the single-crystal X-ray structure. Six RDCs are found to be necessary to run the simulation, and seven are the minimum to get an acceptable result for the investigated compound. It was also shown that (13)C-(1)H and (1)H-(1)H RDCs, which are the easiest to measure, are also the most important and information-rich data for the order matrix calculation. The effect of each RDC on the calculation depends on the location of the corresponding vector in the structure. The direct RDC of a stereocenter is important to the configuration determination, but the configuration of stereocenters devoid of protons can also be obtained from analysis of nearby RDCs.     

A novel method for the determination of stereochemistry in six-membered chairlike rings using residual dipolar couplings

A novel method for the determination of the relative stereochemistry of six-membered chairlike ring molecules by residual dipolar couplings is presented. C-H residual dipolar couplings were used to investigate the relative stereochemistry of 4,6-O-ethylidene-d-glucopyranose. For this and similar systems it is not necessary to acquire redundant dipolar couplings and to calculate the orientation order tensor. The presented methodology is a paradigmatic leap for the determination of the relative stereochemistry or remote stereochemistry in this kind of fused ring system. Residual dipolar coupling data were collected by 1D and 2D direct-measurement heteronuclear multiple quantum coherence (HMQC) spectroscopy. It was demonstrated that direct measurement of HMQC was quick and accurate for small molecules at natural abundance.
