Naphthobispyrazine Bisimide: A Strong Acceptor Unit for Conjugated Polymers Enabling Highly Coplanar Backbone, Short π - π Stacking, and High Electron Transport

Tsubasa Mikie et al.

Summary: This study developed and synthesized a novel acceptor unit for conjugated polymers. The resulting polymer showed significantly improved electron and hole mobilities compared to its predecessor, likely due to the highly coplanar and rigid backbone. Furthermore, the incorporation of fluorine atoms as conformation-directing groups resulted in higher solubility and regular backbone structure for the polymer.

Imide-Functionalized Fluorenone and Its Cyanated Derivative Based n-Type Polymers: Synthesis, Structure-Property Correlations, and Thin-Film Transistor Performance

Zhicai Chen et al.

Summary: The development of high-performance n-type polymer semiconductors is achieved by designing and synthesizing electron-deficient building blocks. In this study, two electron-deficient building blocks, imide-functionalized fluorenone (FOI) and its cyanated derivative (FCNI), were developed, which exhibit deep-lying lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy levels and highly coplanar frameworks. A series of polymers were constructed from these building blocks, demonstrating unipolar n-type transport character and high electron mobility. These findings provide a remarkable platform for accessing high-performance n-type polymers and suggest the powerful strategy of imide functionalization for developing n-type organic electronics.

n-Type Organic and Polymeric Semiconductors Based on Bithiophene Imide Derivatives

Kui Feng et al.

Summary: In the last three decades, there has been significant progress in p-type organic and polymeric semiconductors, while development in n-type analogues has been limited by the scarcity of highly electron-deficient building blocks. Imide-functionalized arenes, such as NDI and PDI, have shown promise in developing n-type semiconductors, but face challenges like steric hindrance and backbone distortion. Designing novel imide-functionalized heteroarenes like BTI, and optimizing their structure, has led to the development of high-performance n-type semiconductors with suppressed FMO levels.
