Doctoral Thesis FUNCTIONALIZED LOW LUMO [1]BENZOTHIENO[3,2-B][1]BENZOTHIOPHENE (BTBT)-BASED MOLECULAR SEMICONDUCTORS FOR ORGANIC FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTORS(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2021) Özdemir, Resul; Usta, HakanDAcTTs have provided an excellent π-framework for the development of high mobility p-type molecular semiconductors in the past decade. However, n-type DAcTTs are rare and their electron transporting characteristics remain largely unexplored. In the second chapter of this thesis, the first example of an n-type BTBT-based semiconductor, D(PhFCO)-BTBT, has been realized via a two-step transition metal-free process without using chromatographic purification. The corresponding TC/BG-OFET devices demonstrated μe (max) = ~0.6 cm2/Vs and Ion/Ioff ratio = 107-108. The large band-gap BTBT π-core is a promising candidate for high mobility n-type organic semiconductors and, combination of very large intrinsic charge transport capabilities and optical transparency, may open a new perspective for next-generation (opto)electronics. In the third chapter of this thesis, a series of BTBT-based small molecules, D(C7CO)-BTBT, C7CO-BTBT-CC(CN)2C7, and D(C7CC(CN)2)-BTBT, have been developed in “S-F-BTBT-F-S (F/S: functional group/substituent)” molecular architecture. Combining with D(PhFCO)-BTBT, a molecular library with systematically varied chemical structures has been studied herein for the first time for low LUMO DAcTTs, and key relationships have been elucidated. The molecular engineering perspectives presented in this thesis may give unique insights into the design of novel electron transporting thienoacenes for unconventional optoelectronics.Doctoral Thesis Yüksek Performanslı Organik Transistörler ve Güneş Pilleri Uygulamaları için Yeni Yarı İletken Malzemeler(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2022) Can, Ayşe; Usta, HakanIn the first chapter, we review the historical and recent advances in the design and implementation of indenofluorene (IF)-based semiconductors in organic transistor and solar cell devices. In the second chapter, a series of n-type ambient-stable and solution- processable TIFDMT-based semiconducting molecules, β,β'-C8-TIFDMT, β,β'-C12- TIFDMT, and β,β'-C16-TIFDMT are reported. By utilizing alkyl chain engineering in TIFDMT-based molecules and semiconductor-dielectric interface engineering through PS-brush treatment onto the dielectric surface in their OFET devices, we optimize the semiconductors' morphologies and thin-film molecular packing motifs to attain high- performance OFETs. The PS-brush treated OFETs demonstrate high device performance with μe = 0.9 cm2/V.s and Ion/Ioff ratio = 107-108. In the third chapter, we demonstrate the design, synthesis, and characterizations of two novel meso-π-extended/-deficient BODIPY building blocks (2OD-T2BDY and 2OD-TTzBDY), a library of low band gap (Eg = 1.30-1.35 eV) donor-acceptor copolymers based on these building blocks, and the utilization of the D-A copolymers as donor materials in the bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaics. Power conversion efficiencies of up to 4.4% with a short-circuit current of 12.07 mA cm-2 are achieved. The findings of this thesis on molecular engineering and optoelectronic properties are unique and may provide critical insights into the future development of high performance materials for unconventional optoelectronics.
