Designing organic mixed conductors for electrochemical transistor applications

Ionic Covalent Organic Frameworks in Adsorption and Catalysis

“…The ionic skeletons and chains can modulate the interaction with guests via electrostatic force and charge exchange with counterions. To expand the applications of ionic COFs in catalysis and adsorption area, the following issues to be addressed in the future: (1) The crystallinity and porosity of ionic COFs were still under improved. On the one hand, the predicament for the strength of the linkage and electrostatic repulsion between ionic layers would cause the lower crystallinity compared to neutral COFs.…”

“…Nowadays, the scarcity of energy and resources, as well as anabatic environmental pollution are urgent issues which would have negative impacts on the development of mankind and social. [1] For example, the over-consumption of fossil fuels leads to the release of excessive CO 2 , resulting in environmental pollution and the energy depletion, further posing a significant threat to the sustainable development of environment and humanity. [2] In addition, the contamination of water from the organic pollutants which are difficult to naturally degrade, is another issue for the sustainable development.…”

Conjugated polymers with near-infrared (NIR) optical absorption: structural design considerations and applications in organic electronics

“…The prodigious advancements in conjugated polymer (CP) structural engineering over the last few decades have been directly coupled with the development of new synthetic methodologies for monomer functionalization, polymerization, and an improved understanding of the structure–function relationships that enable state-of-the-art performance metrics in electrochromic devices (ECDs), 1–4 organic photovoltaics (OPV), 5–8 organic photodiodes and phototransistors (OPD and OPTs), 9–12 organic field effect transistors (OFET), 13–16 and organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs). 17–20 Recently, significant research effort has been focused on the development of CPs with near-infrared (NIR) optical absorption (750–2500 nm) to increase light harvesting capabilities in OPV, 21,22 provide optical transparency for smart-windows and photovoltaic green houses, 23,24 enable new capabilities in active camouflage, 25,26 provide discrete, transparent electronics, 27,28 and narrow bandgaps to enable ambipolar charge transport. 14,29,30 Compared to their inorganic counterparts possessing NIR-IR optical absorption, e.g.…”
