Doctoral Thesis FUNCTIONALIZED LOW LUMO [1]BENZOTHIENO[3,2-B][1]BENZOTHIOPHENE (BTBT)-BASED MOLECULAR SEMICONDUCTORS FOR ORGANIC FIELD EFFECT TRANSISTORS(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2021) Özdemir, Resul; Usta, HakanDAcTTs have provided an excellent π-framework for the development of high mobility p-type molecular semiconductors in the past decade. However, n-type DAcTTs are rare and their electron transporting characteristics remain largely unexplored. In the second chapter of this thesis, the first example of an n-type BTBT-based semiconductor, D(PhFCO)-BTBT, has been realized via a two-step transition metal-free process without using chromatographic purification. The corresponding TC/BG-OFET devices demonstrated μe (max) = ~0.6 cm2/Vs and Ion/Ioff ratio = 107-108. The large band-gap BTBT π-core is a promising candidate for high mobility n-type organic semiconductors and, combination of very large intrinsic charge transport capabilities and optical transparency, may open a new perspective for next-generation (opto)electronics. In the third chapter of this thesis, a series of BTBT-based small molecules, D(C7CO)-BTBT, C7CO-BTBT-CC(CN)2C7, and D(C7CC(CN)2)-BTBT, have been developed in “S-F-BTBT-F-S (F/S: functional group/substituent)” molecular architecture. Combining with D(PhFCO)-BTBT, a molecular library with systematically varied chemical structures has been studied herein for the first time for low LUMO DAcTTs, and key relationships have been elucidated. The molecular engineering perspectives presented in this thesis may give unique insights into the design of novel electron transporting thienoacenes for unconventional optoelectronics.Article Citation - WoS: 28Citation - Scopus: 29Three-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, GokhanThe 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.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 19Polymeric and Small-Molecule Semiconductors for Organic Field-Effect Transistors(wiley, 2015-01-16) Usta, Hakan; Facchetti, A. F.This chapter reviews the achievements in the development of molecular and polymeric semiconductors for charge transport in thin-film transistors (TFTs). In particular, it introduces the basic concepts of organic semiconductor structure and organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) operation and then focuses on initial studies and works. Organic semiconductors for OTFTs must possess two essential structural features for their successful implementation in printed electronics. The first feature is a π-conjugated core/chain composed of linked unsaturated units. The second feature is core functionalization with solubilizing substituents, which is essential for inexpensive manufacture by solution methods as well as for enhancing solid-state core interactions. There are several advantages in using polymeric versus molecular p-conjugated semiconductors. Isoindigo has become a popular conjugated moiety in polymer semiconductor design because of its strong electron-withdrawing character. Polymeric p-channel TFTs have reached new heights, with hole mobilities unthinkable only few years back and surpassing 10 cm2V-1 s-1. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Logarithmic Organic Photodetectors(Elsevier Science SA, 2015-12) Elgazzar, Elsayed; Ozdemir, Mehmet; Usta, Hakan; Al-Ghamdi, Ahmed A.; Dere, A.; El-Tantawy, Farid; Yakuphanoglu, F.A novel photodetector of Al/GO:C8-BTBT/n-Si/Au with various graphene oxide (GO) contents has been investigated. The electrical properties of the diodes were characterized by current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements. The values of barrier height, ideality factor, and series resistance of the diodes were determined from I-V characteristic curves by using Norde's equations. The photocurrent properties of the diode were studied under various illumination intensities. The photoconducting mechanism of the diodes is controlled by the traps. The photoresponse properties of the diodes are increased with GO contents. The obtained results indicate that graphene oxide doped 2,7-dioctyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene/n-Si heterojunctions can be used as a photodetector for optoelectronic applications.
