    Π-Conjugated Donor-Acceptor Small Molecule Thin-Films on Gold Electrodes for Reducing the Metal Work-Function
    (Elsevier Science SA, 2016-10) Azum, Naved; Taib, Layla Ahmad; Al Angari, Yasser Mohammed; Asiri, Abdullah M.; Denti, Mitchel; Zhao, Wei; Facchetti, Antonio
    This paper reports the design, facile synthesis and purification of four pi-conjugated donor-acceptor small molecules comprising heteroaromatic units, DA-1-DA-4, for surface and electronic structure modification of gold thin film. These molecules were characterized by H-1/C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Morphologically smooth thin-films (similar to 5 nm) of DA-1-DA-4 were deposited onto Au thin films via thermal evaporation and characterized by atomic force microscopy, theta-2 theta X-ray diffraction and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy. The work functions of the small molecule coated Au electrodes are shifted to lower energies by similar to 0.1-03 eV, compared to that of the bare Au film measured as a reference. The vapor-deposition of structurally,simple small molecules developed here shows great promise as a facile approach to reduce gold work function for electron injection/extraction between organic semiconductors and Au contacts in various opto-electronic devices.

    Naphthalene Diimide-Based Polymeric Semiconductors. Effect of Chlorine Incorporation and N-Channel Transistors Operating in Water
    (Springer Heidelberg, 2016-03) Ryu, Gi-Seong; Chen, Zhihua; Usta, Hakan; Noh, Yong-Young; Facchetti, Antonio
    We demonstrate here the design, synthesis and characterization of two new chlorinated polymers, P(NDI2HD-T2Cl2) and P(NDI2OD-T2Cl2) based on N,N-difunctionalized naphthalene diimide (NDI) and 3,3-dichloro-2,2-bithiophene (T2Cl2) moieties. Our results indicate that organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) based on these new chlorinated polymers exhibit electron mobilities approaching 0.1 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1) (I-on:I-off similar to 10(6)-10(7)), with far less ambipolarity due to their lower highest occupied molecular orbital energies, and they are more stable under deleterious high-humidity conditions (RH similar to 60%) and upon submersion in water, compared with those fabricated with the parent non-chlorinated polymers. In addition, OTFTs fabricated with the new chlorinated polymers exhibit excellent operational stabilities with <3% degradations upon bias-stress test.
