CONJUGATED POLYMERS COMPRISING THERMALLY CLEAVABLE OXALATE PENDANT GROUPS

摘要

The invention relates to novel conjugated polymers containing oxalate side groups which can be cleaved off thermally, to monomers and processes for their preparation, to their use as semiconductors in organic electronic (OE) devices, in particular in organic photovoltaic (OPV) devices, organic photodetectors (OPDs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), and to OE, OPV, OPD, OLED and OFET devices containing these polymers.
