    Three-Dimensional Au-Coated Electrosprayed Nanostructured BODIPY Films on Aluminum Foil as Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Platforms and Their Catalytic Applications
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2017-05-16) Yilmaz, Mehmet; Erkartal, Mustafa; Ozdemir, Mehmet; Sen, Unal; Usta, Hakan; Demirel, Gokhan
    The design and development of three-dimensional (3D) nanostructures with high surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) performances have attracted considerable attention in the fields of chemistry, biology, and materials science. Nevertheless, electrospraying of organic smalt molecules on low-cost flexible substrates has never been studied to realize large-scale SERS-active platforms. Here, we report the facile, efficient, and low-cost fabrication of-Stable and reproducible Au-coated electrosprayed organic semiconductor films (Au@BDY-4TEBDY) on flexible regular aluminum foil at a large scale (5 cm X 5 cm) for practical SERS and catalytic applications. To this end, a well-designed-acceptor-donor-atceptor-type solution-processable molecular semiconductor, BDY-4T-BDY, developed by our group, is used because of its advantageous structural and electrical properties. The morphology of the electrosprayed organic film changes by solution concentration, and two different 3D morphologies with out-of-plane features are obtained. Highly uniform dendritic nanoribbons with sharp needle-like tips and vertically oriented nanoplates (similar to 50 nm thickness) are achieved when electrospraying solution concentrations of 240 and 253% w/v.(mgimL) are, respectively, used. When these electrosprayed organic films are coated with a nanoscopic thin (30 nm) Au layer, the resulting Au@BDY-4T-BDY platforms demonstrate remarkable SERS enhancement factors up to 1.7 X 10(6) with excellent Raman signal reproducibility (relative standard deviation <= 0.13) for methylene blue over the entire film. Finally, Au@BDY-4T-BDY films showed good catalytic activity for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol to 4-aminophenol with rate constants of 1.3 X 10(-2) and 9.2 X 10(-3) min(-1). Our results suggest that electrospraying of rationally designed organic semiconductor molecules on flexible substrates holds great promise to enable low-cost, solution-processed, SERS-active platforms.

    Solution-Processable Bodipy-Based Small Molecules for Semiconducting Microfibers in Organic Thin-Film Transistors
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2016-05-23) Ozdemir, Mehmet; Choi, Donghee; Kwon, Guhyun; Zorlu, Yunus; Cosut, Bunyemin; Kim, Hyekyoung; Usta, Hakan
    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.
