Molecular Design and Electronic Functions of Nanostructured LC Semiconductors

摘要

Conventional liquid-crystalline (LC) semiconductors have been molecules consisting of a π-conjugated moiety and alkyl chains. In this paper, we report a molecular design of LC electronic materials based on nanosegregation. Electrochromic LC molecules consisting of a p-conjugated system and a ionic moiety, high hole mobility of LC side chain polysiloxane bearing terthiophene groups, and LC perylene tetracarboxylic bisimide derivatives bearing oligosiloxane chains are discussed.
