چکیده

High molecular weight PBTTT-C12 is blended with the pure trimer, BTTT-3, to enhance intergrain connectivity and charge transport. Analysis of the morphology and crystallinity of the blends shows that the polymer and oligomer are well-integrated, leading to high hole mobilities, greater than 0.1 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1), in films that contain as much as 83% oligomer.

Structural and electronic properties of oligo- and polythiophenes modified by substituents

The electronic and structural properties of oligo- and polythiophenes that can be used as building blocks for molecular electronic devices have been studied by using periodic density functional theory calculations. We have in particular focused on the effect of substituents on the electronic structure of thiophenes. Whereas singly bonded substituents, such as methyl, amino or nitro groups, chan...

Porphyrin - functionalized oligo - and polythiophenes {

The synthesis and properties of a series of biand terthiophenes 3–8 substituted with meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) groups via an isolating oxaalkyl chain is described. Electrooxidative polymerization leads to the corresponding metal complexed porphyrin-functionalized polythiophenes P4–P8. The electrochemical and spectroscopic properties of the polymer films reveal the superimposition of the e...

Optical Properties of Some Oligothiophene Derivatives: DFT Study

Polythiophenes are of considerable interest as synthetic metals. The optical properties of polythiophenes can be easily affected by alkyl chain or other side groups to the thiophene ring. The effect of polymerization degree on the energy gap was studied in the case of polythiophene as a conjugated polymer at B3LYP/6-31+G(3d,3p) level of theory. Up to n = 16 could be confident that this degree o...
