研究目的
To investigate how the length of the side chain between the branch point and backbone affects the microstructure and charge transport of thin films made of TIIGTVT and TIIGSVS copolymers.
研究成果
The study concluded that the length of the side chain between the branch point and backbone significantly affects the microstructure and charge transport properties of TIIG-based copolymer thin films. The TIIGTVT series showed localized aggregation enhancing charge transport, while the TIIGSVS series showed long-range order that hindered charge transport. The findings suggest that careful design of side chains can optimize the performance of polymeric semiconductors in OFET devices.
研究不足
The study focused on the effect of side chain length on charge transport and microstructure but did not explore other potential variables such as different donor moieties or processing conditions. The research also highlighted the need for further optimization of the side chain length to maximize charge transport efficiency.
