    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.

    Interplay Between Charge Injection, Electron Transport, and Quantum Efficiency in Ambipolar Trilayer Organic Light-Emitting Transistors
    (Wiley, 2022-01-15) Moschetto, Salvatore; Benvenuti, Emilia; Usta, Hakan; Ozdemir, Resul; Facchetti, Antonio; Muccini, Michele; Toffanin, Stefano
    The fascinating characteristic of organic light-emitting transistors (OLETs) of being electrical switches with an intrinsic light-emitting capability makes them attractive candidates for a wide variety of applications, ranging from sensors to displays. To date, the OLET ambipolar trilayer heterostructure is the most developed architecture for maximizing device performance. However, a major challenge of trilayer OLETs remains the inverse correlation between external quantum efficiency and brightness under ambipolar conditions. The complex interconnection between electroluminescent and ambipolar charge transport properties, in conjunction with the limited availability of electron transport semiconducting materials, has indeed hampered the disruptive evolution of the OLET technology. Here, an in-depth study of the interplay of the key fundamental features that determine the device performance is reported by exploring electron transport semiconductors with different properties in ambipolar trilayer OLETs. Through the selection of compounds with tailored chemical structures, the relation between intrinsic optoelectronic characteristics of the electron transport semiconductor, energy level alignment within the structure, and morphological features is unraveled. Furthermore, the introduction of a suitable electron injector at the emissive/semiconducting layers interface sheds light into the bidimensional nature of OLETs that is a distinguishing factor of this class of devices with respect to prototypical organic light-emitting diodes.
