    Ultrahigh Vacuum Self-Assembly of Rotationally Commensurate C8-BTBT/MoS2 Mixed-Dimensional Heterostructures
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2019-02-12) Liu, Xiaolong; Balla, Itamar; Sangwan, Vinod K.; Usta, Hakan; Facchetti, Antonio; Marks, Tobin J.; Hersam, Mark C.
    Mixed-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures combine the advantages of nanomaterials with qualitatively distinct properties such as the extended bandstructures and high charge carrier mobilities of inorganic two-dimensional materials and the discrete orbital energy levels and strong optical absorption of zero-dimensional organic molecules. The synergistic interplay between nanomaterials of distinct dimensionality has enabled a variety of unique applications such as antiambipolar transistors, sensitized photodetectors, and gate-tunable photovoltaics. Because the performance of mixed-dimensional heterostructure devices depends sensitively on the buried interfacial structure, it is of great interest to identify materials and chemistries that naturally form highly ordered heterointerfaces. Toward this end, here we demonstrate ultrahigh vacuum self-assembly of 2,7-dioctyl[1]benzothieno [3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (C8-BTBT) monolayers onto epitaxial MoS2/graphene heterostructures. With molecular-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, the resulting C8-BTBT/MoS2/graphene mixed-dimensional heterostructures are found to be rotationally commensurate with well-defined physical and electronic structures. It is further shown that the self-assembled C8-BTBT monolayers are insensitive to the structural defects and electronic perturbations of the underlying MoS2 substrate, which provides significant processing latitude. For these reasons, this work will facilitate ongoing efforts to utilize organic/MoS2/graphene mixed-dimensional heterostructures for electronic, optoelectronic, and photovoltaic applications.

    Perfluoroalkyl-Functionalized Thiazole Thiophene Oligomers as N-Channel Semiconductors in Organic Field-Effect and Light-Emitting Transistors

    Despite their favorable electronic and structural properties, the synthetic development and incorporation of thiazole-based building blocks into n-type semiconductors has lagged behind that of other pi-deficient building blocks. Since thiazole insertion into pi-conjugated systems is synthetically more demanding, continuous research efforts are essential to underscore their properties in electron-transporting devices. Here, we report the design, synthesis, and characterization of a new series of thiazolethiophene tetra- (1 and 2) and hexa-heteroaryl (3 and 4) co-oligomers, varied by core extension and regiochemistry, which are end-functionalized with electron-withdrawing perfluorohexyl substituents. These new semiconductors are found to exhibit excellent n-channel OFET transport with electron mobilities (mu(e)) as high as 1.30 cm(2)/(V center dot s) (I-on/I-off > 10(6)) for films of 2 deposited at room temperature. In contrary to previous studies, we show here that 2,2'-bithiazole can be a very practical building block for high-performance n-channel semiconductors. Additionally, upon 2,2'- and 5,5'-bithiazole insertion into a sexithiophene backbone of well-known DFH-6T, significant charge transport improvements (from 0.0010.021 cm(2)/(V center dot s) to 0.200.70 cm(2)/(V center dot s)) were observed for 3 and 4. Analysis of the thin-film morphological and microstructural characteristics, in combination with the physicochemical properties, explains the observed high mobilities for the present semiconductors. Finally, we demonstrate for the first time implementation of a thiazole semiconductor (2) into a trilayer light-emitting transistor (OLET) enabling green light emission. Our results show that thiazole is a promising building block for efficient electron transport in ?-conjugated semiconductor thin-films, and it should be studied more in future optoelectronic applications.
