    Solution-Processable Bodipy-Based Small Molecules for Semiconducting Microfibers in Organic Thin-Film Transistors

    Electron-deficient pi-conjugated small molecules can function as electron-transporting semiconductors in various optoelectronic applications. Despite their unique structural, optical, and electronic properties, the development of BODIPY-based organic semiconductors has lagged behind that of other pi-deficient units. Here, we report the design and synthesis of two novel solution-proccessable BODIPY-based small molecules (BDY-3T-BDY and BDY-4T-BDY) for organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs). The new semiconductors were fully characterized by H-1/C-13 NMR, mass spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis spectroscopy, photoluminescence, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterization of a key intermediate reveals crucial structural properties. Solution-sheared top-contact/bottom-gate OTFTs exhibited electron mobilities up to 0.01 cm(2)/V center dot s and current on/off ratios of >10(8). Film microstructural and morphological characterizations indicate the formation of relatively long (similar to 0.1 mm) and micrometer-sized (1-2 mu m) crystalline fibers for BDY-4T-BDY-based films along the shearing direction. Fiber-alignment-induced charge-transport anisotropy (mu?/mu approximate to 10) was observed, and higher mobilities were achieved when the microfibers were aligned along the conduction channel, which allows for efficient long-range charge-transport between source and drain electrodes. These OTFT performances are the highest reported to date for a BODIPY-based molecular semiconductor, and demonstrate that BODIPY is a promising building block for enabling solution-processed, electron-transporting semiconductor films.

    A Solution-Processable Liquid-Crystalline Semiconductor for Low-Temperature Air-Stable N-Channel Field-Effect Transistors
    (Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2017-02-22) Ozdemir, Resul; Choi, Donghee; Ozdemir, Mehmet; Kim, Hyekyoung; Kostakoglu, Sinem Tuncel; Erkartal, Mustafa; Usta, Hakan
    A new solution-processable and air-stable liquid-crystalline nchannel organic semiconductor (2,2'-(2,8-bis(5-(2-octyldodecyl) thiophen-2-yl) indeno[1,2-b] fluorene-6,12-diylidene) dimalononitrile, alpha,omega-2OD-TIFDMT) with donor-acceptor-donor (D-AD) pi conjugation has been designed, synthesized, and fully characterized. The new semiconductor exhibits a low LUMO energy (-4.19 eV) and a narrow optical bandgap (1.35 eV). The typical pseudo-focal-conic fan-shaped texture of a hexagonal columnar liquid-crystalline (LC) phase was observed over a wide temperature range. The spin-coated semiconductor thin films show the formation of large (approximate to 0.5-1 mu m) and highly crystalline platelike grains with edge-on molecular orientations. Low-temperature-annealed (50 degrees C) top-contact/bottom-gate OFETs have provided good electron obility values as high as 0.11 cm(2) (Vs)(-1) and high I-on/I-off ratios of 10(7) to 10(8) with excellent ambient stability. This indicates an enhancement of two orders of magnitude (100 V) when compared with the b-substituted parent semiconductor, beta-DD-TIFDMT (2,2'-(2,8-bis(3-dodecylthiophen- 2-yl) indeno[1,2-b] fluorene-6,12-diylidene) dimalononitrile). The current rational alkyl-chain engineering route offers great advantages for D-A-D pi-core coplanarity in addition to maintaining good solubility in organic solvents, and leads to favorable optoelectronic/physicochemical characteristics. These remarkable findings demonstrate that alpha,omega-2OD-TIFDMT is a promising semiconductor material for the development of n-channel OFETs on flexible plastic substrates and LC-state annealing of the columnar liquid crystals can lower the electron mobility for transistor-type charge transport.
