The Role of Tie Chains on the Mechano‐Electrical Properties of Semiconducting Polymer Films

Journal Article Gu, Kaichen; Onorato, Jonathan; Luscombe, Christine; ... - Advanced Electronic Materials

Abstract The mechano‐electrical properties of poly(3‐hexylthiophene) thin films are investigated as a function of their tie‐chain content. Tie chains play an indispensable role in enabling strain‐induced structural alignment and charge‐transport enhancement in the strain direction. In the absence of sufficient tie chains, the external mechanical force cannot induce any significant polymer backbone alignment locally or crystallite reorientation at the mesoscale. These samples instead undergo brittle fracture on deformation, with cracks forming normal to the direction of strain; charge transport in this direction is hindered as a consequence. This mechanistic insight on strain alignment points to the promise of leveraging tie‐chainmore »« less

Role of Complexation Strength on the Photophysical and Transport Properties of Semiconducting Charged Polymer Complexes

Journal Article Le, My; Warner, Caleigh; Segalman, Rachel; ... - Chemistry of Materials

The high polymer fraction in complexes of conjugated and insulating polyelectrolytes offers unique opportunities for the fabrication of conductive thick films and bulk structures. The electrostatic interactions in these systems further provide a handle for controlling their structure and properties. The impact of charge-mediated complexation strength on the photophysical and electronic transport properties in blends of conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs) with oppositely charged polymeric ionic liquids (PILs) was examined. Complexes were formed with varying frequency of charged repeat units, from 50 to 100%, on an anionic polythiophene-based CPE and a complimentary cationic PIL. In highly charged complexes, the intimate mixing betweenmore »« less

Effects of Side Chain Branch Point on Self Assembly, Structure, and Electronic Properties of High Mobility Semiconducting Polymers

Journal Article Bridges, Colin; Ford, Michael; Thomas, Elayne; ... - Macromolecules

Semiconducting polymers exhibiting lyotropic liquid-crystalline (LC) mesophases allow for precise control over crystallinity and crystallite orientation using scalable equilibrium processing techniques. The ability to control morphologies from molecular to macroscopic scales is desirable for optimizing polymer electronic devices such as field-effect transistors. LC mesophases can form in semiconducting polymers with branched side chains, but steric repulsion from the side chain structure increases π-stacking distances. This change in unit cell negatively impacts electronic transport, negating any improvements gained by achieving more favorable mesostructures. Herein, we show that the π-stacking distance in cyclopentadithiophene-benzothiadiazole donor–acceptor copolymers is successively shortened by moving the branchmore »« less
