    Organic Light-Emitting Physically Unclonable Functions
    (Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2021-12-22) Kayaci, Nilgun; Ozdemir, Resul; Kalay, Mustafa; Kiremitler, N. Burak; Usta, Hakan; Onses, M. Serdar
    The development of novel physically unclonable functions (PUFs) is of growing interest and fluorescent organic semiconductors (f-OSCs) offer unique advantages of structural versatility, solution-processability, ease of processing, and great tuning ability of their physicochemical/optoelectronic/spectroscopic properties. The design and ambient atmosphere facile fabrication of a unique organic light-emitting physically unclonable function (OLE-PUF) based on a green-emissive fluorescent oligo(p-phenyleneethynylene) molecule is reported. The OLE-PUFs have been prepared by one-step, brief (5 min) thermal annealing of spin-coated nanoscopic films (approximate to 40 nm) at a modest temperature (170 degrees C), which results in efficient surface dewetting to form randomly positioned/sized hemispherical features with bright fluorescence. The random positioning of molecular domains generated the unclonable surface with excellent uniformity (0.50), uniqueness (0.49), and randomness (p > 0.01); whereas the distinctive photophysical and structural properties of the molecule created the additional security layers (fluorescence profile, excited-state decay dynamics, Raman mapping/spectrum, and infrared spectrum) for multiplex encoding. The OLE-PUFs on substrates of varying chemical structures, surface energies and flexibility, and direct deposition on goods via drop-casting are demonstrated. The OLE-PUFs immersed in water, exposed to mechanical abrasion, and read-out repeatedly via fluorescence imaging showed great stability. These findings clearly demonstrate that rationally engineered solution-processable f-OSCs have a great potential to become a key player in the development of new-generation PUFs.

    Bodipy-Based Semiconducting Materials for Organic Bulk Heterojunction Photovoltaics and Thin-Film Transistors
    (Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2018-12-13) Ho, Dongil; Ozdemir, Resul; Kim, Hyungsug; Earmme, Taeshik; Usta, Hakan; Kim, Choongik
    The rapid emergence of organic (opto)electronics as a promising alternative to conventional (opto)electronics has been achieved through the design and development of novel pi-conjugated systems. Among various semiconducting structural platforms, 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) pi-systems have recently attracted attention for use in organic thin-films transistors (OTFTs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). This Review article provides an overview of the developments in the past 10 years on the structural design and synthesis of BODIPY-based organic semiconductors and their application in OTFT/OPV devices. The findings summarized and discussed here include the most recent breakthroughs in BODIPYs with record-high charge carrier mobilities and power conversion efficiencies (PCEs). The most up-to-date design rationales and discussions providing a strong understanding of structure-property-function relationships in BODIPY-based semiconductors are presented. Thus, this review is expected to inspire new research for future materials developments/applications in this family of molecules.

    A Solution-Processable Meso-Phenyl N-Channel Semiconductor With Enhanced Fluorescence Emission
    (Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2019-06-26) Ozcan, Emrah; Ozdemir, Mehmet; Ho, Dongil; Zorlu, Yunus; Ozdemir, Resul; Kim, Choongik; Cosut, Bunyemin
    The cover feature shows the delicate balance between locally excited (LE) and twisted intramolecular charge-transfer (TICT) states, which could be controlled by solvent polarity and nano-aggregation, of a meso-phenyl-BODIPY-based fluorescent semiconductor. The dihedral angle between the meso-aromatic unit and BODIPY pi-core was found to be the key factor in this balance. This is the first report of highly emissive characteristics for an A-D-A type BODIPY-based n-channel semiconductor. Details are given in the Full Paper by B. Cosut, H. Usta, C. Kim, and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/cplu.201900317).

    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.
