Towards environmentally friendly processing of molecular semiconductors

Abstract

We present the design and synthesis of molecular organic semiconductors enabling processing from environmentally friendly solvents, including ethyl acetate. The structural changes employed do not adversely influence the attractive optical or electronic properties of the parent chromophore. Thin film transistors demonstrate the semiconducting ability of the new structures when processed from ethyl acetate.
