Title: A fast scheme to calculate electronic couplings between P3HT polymer units using diabatic orbitals for charge transfer dynamics simulations

Abstract

We propose a fast and accurate calculation method to compute the electronic couplings between molecular units in a thiophene-ring-based polymer chain mimicking a real organic semiconducting polymer, poly(3-hexylthiophene). Through a unit block diabatization scheme, the method employed minimal number of diabatic orbitals to compute the site energies and electronic couplings, which were validated by comparing with benchmark density functional theory calculations. In addition, by using the obtained electronic couplings, a quantum dynamics simulation was carried out to propagate a hole initially localized in a thiophene-ring unit of the polymer chain. Here, this work establishes a simple, efficient, and robust means for the simulation of electron or hole transfer processes in organic semiconducting materials, an important capability for study and understanding of the class of organic optoelectronic and photovoltaic materials.

ipso-Arylative Ring-Opening Polymerization as a Route to Electron-Deficient Conjugated Polymers

Journal Article Shih, Feng -Yang ; Choi, Deokkyu ; Wu, Qin ; ... - Angewandte Chemie (International Edition)

ipso–Arylative ring–opening polymerization of 2–bromo–8–aryl–8H–indeno[2,1–b]thiophen–8–ol monomers proceeds to M_n up to 9 kg mol^–1 with conversion of the monomer diarylcarbinol groups to pendent conjugated aroylphenyl side chains (2–benzoylphenyl or 2–(4–hexylbenzoyl)phenyl), which influence the optical and electronic properties of the resulting polythiophenes. Poly(3–(2–(4–hexylbenzoyl)phenyl)thiophene) was found to have lower frontier orbital energy levels (HOMO/LUMO=–5.9/–4.0 eV) than poly(3–hexylthiophene) owing to the electron–withdrawing ability of the aryl ketone side chains. The electron mobility (ca. 2×10^–3 cm² V^–1 s^–1) for poly(3–(2–(4–hexylbenzoyl)phenyl)thiophene) was found to be significantly higher than the hole mobility (ca. 8×10^–6 cm² V^–1 s^–1), which suggests such polymers are candidates for n–type organicmore »« less

Untangling the isotopic effects of deuteration on the optoelectronic properties of conducting polymers

Journal Article Shao, Ming ; Keum, Jong Kahk ; Chen, Jihua ; ... - Nature Communications

The attractive optoelectronic properties of conducting polymers depend sensitively upon intra- and inter-polymer chain interactions, and therefore new methods to manipulate these interactions are continually being pursued. Here, we report a study of the isotopic effects of deuterium substitution on the structure, morphology, and optoelectronic properties of regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene)s (P3HT) with an approach that combines the synthesis of deuterated materials, optoelectronic properties measurements, theoretical simulation, and neutron scattering. Selective substitutions of deuterium on the backbone or side-chains of P3HT result in distinct optoelectronic responses in P3HT/[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) photovoltaics. Specifically, the weak non-covalent intermolecular interactions induced by themore »« less

Mixed-flow design for microfluidic printing of two-component polymer semiconductor systems

Journal Article Wang, Gang ; Feng, Liang-Wen ; Huang, Wei ; ... - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

The rational creation of two-component conjugated polymer systems with high levels of phase purity in each component is challenging but crucial for realizing printed soft-matter electronics. Here, we report a mixed-flow microfluidic printing (MFMP) approach for two-component π -polymer systems that significantly elevates phase purity in bulk-heterojunction solar cells and thin-film transistors. MFMP integrates laminar and extensional flows using a specially microstructured shear blade, designed with fluid flow simulation tools to tune the flow patterns and induce shear, stretch, and pushout effects. This optimizes polymer conformation and semiconducting blend order as assessed by atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopymore »« less

Competition between deformability and charge transport in semiconducting polymers for flexible and stretchable electronics

Journal Article Printz, Adam D. ; Lipomi, Darren J., E-mail: dlipomi@ucsd.edu - Applied Physics Reviews

The primary goal of the field concerned with organic semiconductors is to produce devices with performance approaching that of silicon electronics, but with the deformability—flexibility and stretchability—of conventional plastics. However, an inherent competition between deformability and charge transport has long been observed in these materials, and achieving the extreme (or even moderate) deformability implied by the word “plastic” concurrently with high charge transport may be elusive. This competition arises because the properties needed for high carrier mobilities—e.g., rigid chains in π-conjugated polymers and high degrees of crystallinity in the solid state—are antithetical to deformability. On the device scale, this competitionmore »« less
