An Air-Stable Low-Bandgap n-Type Organic Polymer Semiconductor Exhibiting Selective Solubility in Perfluorinated Solvents

摘要

Thumbnail image of graphical abstractA thin-film transistor: An n-type polymer semiconductor, poly(2,3-bis(perfluorohexyl)thieno[3,4-b]pyrazine), was synthesized through a Pd-catalyzed polycondensation employing a perfluorinated multiphase solvent system. This is the first example of an n-type polymer semiconductor with exclusive solubility in fluorinated solvents. The fabrication of organic field effect transistors containing this new n-type polymer semiconductor is shown (see picture).
