چکیده

In this communication we report the electrical characteristics of hexathiapentacene (HTP) and emphasize the unusual chemical structure and molecular packing. We report field-effect mobilities as high as 0.04 cm2 V-1 s-1 and current on/off ratios of >105. With crystallographic evidence of unusually long S-S bonds compared to normal S-S bonds, we have suggested a unique resonance structure similar to trithiapentalene, which well explains the bonding characteristics of HTP. This work appears to be the first to determine its molecular structure/packing mode and to study its application in organic transistors.

Effects of odd-even side chain length of alkyl-substituted diphenylbithiophenes on first monolayer thin film packing structure.

Because of their preferential two-dimensional layer-by-layer growth in thin films, 5,5'bis(4-alkylphenyl)-2,2'-bithiophenes (P2TPs) are model compounds for studying the effects of systematic chemical structure variations on thin-film structure and morphology, which in turn, impact the charge transport in organic field-effect transistors. For the first time, we observed, by grazing incidence X-r...

Molecular order of air-stable p-type Organic Thin-Film Transistors by tuning the extension of the π-conjugated core: the cases of Indolo[3,2- b]carbazole and Triindole semiconductors

Charge transport in organic devices depends strongly on the molecular order and morphology of the organic semiconductor thin films. In the design of new organic semiconductors, the selection of the appropriate core plays a key role in the molecular packing and charge transport characteristics of the organic device. Four derivatives of carbazole that mainly differ in the extension of the π-conju...
