Non-covalent interaction controlled 2D organic semiconductor films: Molecular self-assembly, electronic and optical properties, and electronic devices

Molecularly aligned films of [1]benzothieno[3,2‐b][1]benzothiophene derivatives by solution shearing: Effect of alkyl substitution on morphology and charge transporting property

“…[25] The OFETs with the 2D charge transporting characteristic is more desirable in the development of large-area and wearable organic electronics. [30,34,35] Our study not only revealed the significant influences of the alkyl substituents on the self-assembly behaviors and film morphologies of the solution-sheared BTBT derivatives but also demonstrated a facile method to prepare the 2D chargetransport character. The 2D charge-transport characteristics of di-alkylated BTBT offer more flexibility in device fabrication, for example, patterning source-drain electrodes without considering the effect of anisotropic mobility to achieve high-performance transistors for future flexible electronic applications.…”

Structural topologies involving energetically significant antiparallel π-stacking and unconventional N(nitrile)⋯π(fumarate) contacts in dinuclear Zn(ii) and polymeric Mn(ii) compounds: antiproliferative evaluation and theoretical studies

“…16 Self-assembly of non-covalent interactions in coordination complexes has received remarkable attention to elucidate the stability and organization of supramolecular networks. 17 Various experimental analyses have established the contributions of intra- as well as inter-molecular non-covalent interactions in the synthetic approaches and design of coordination compounds. 18 Aromatic π-stacking interactions possess remarkable importance in the stability of layered assemblies of coordination compounds 19 and also aid in exploring the properties of functional materials.…”

An In Situ Spectral Monitoring Scheme for Advanced Manufacturing of Novel Nanodevices

“…Among the organic semiconductor materials, perylene dyes are significant owing to their optical and photoelectric properties [46][47][48][49][50]. Particularly, Me-PTCDI, a typical perylene dye molecule, is considered to be practical for producing novel nanodevices owing to its characteristics [51][52][53][54]. Consequently, the monolayer, bilayers, and bulk phase of Me-PTCDI thin films on the h-BN surface have been investigated by employing the microarea DRS.…”
