摘要：We present the imide-functionalized polymer semiconductors for high-performance organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) and polymer solar cells (PSCs). The imide-functionalized arenes include naphthalene diimide, phthalimide, thiophene imide, bithiazole imide, bithiophene imide, and various bithiophene imide derivatives with precisely controlled conjugation length and defined structure. Some other novel imide-functionalized arenes will also be presented. By copolymerizing with various electron donor co-units, we are able to achieve a series of polymer semiconductors with tunable charge carrier polarities (n-type, p-type, and ambipolar) and substantial mobilities. The high mobilities, narrow bandgaps, and low-lying HOMOs enable the imide-functionalized polymers as excellent donor materials in PSCs, and the resulting solar cells show highly promising power conversion efficiencies (PCEs). The materials chemical structure-property-device performance correlation is established, which should guide materials design in organic electronics.
Intramolecular sulfur-oxygen interaction has shown great success in designing high-performance organic semiconductors due to good materials solubility and high-degree of backbone planarity. However, the derived semiconductors usually have high-lying HOMOs due to the strong electron donating nature of alkoxy chain, which leads to degraded stability in OTFTs and small open-circuit voltages in PSCs (< 0.6 V). By wisely choosing the arenes and controlling the substitution pattern of the alkoxy chains, we have successfully synthesized a series of novel electron-rich building blocks featuring intramolecular sulfur-oxygen interaction, and their incorporation into polymer backbones affords the resulting semiconductors with high-degree of backbone planarity, close intermolecular packing, low-lying HOMOs, and widely tunable bandgaps, which lead to remarkable charge carrier mobility with good OTFT stability. At meantime, substantial Vocs (~ 0.8 V) and excellent PCEs (> 10%) are achieved in PSCs. Hence, the intramolecular sulfur-oxygen interaction is an effective strategy for materials innovation in organic electronics.
