Exploring the Temperature-Dependent Microelectrical Characteristics of Organic-Silicon Heterojunctions in the Absence of Luminance

“…Semiconductors play a pivotal role in the Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystem, acting as the cornerstone for electronic and photonic devices that enable connectivity, data processing, and communication within IoT networks. 1 While inorganic semiconductors have traditionally dominated the landscape of electronic and photonic devices, recently there has been notable interest in the fabrication of electronic and photonic devices such as OSCs, OLEDs, and OFETs employing organic semiconducting materials. This enthusiasm stems primarily from their cost-effectiveness, suitability for large-area applications, and the ease of fabricating devices on flexible substrates at low temperatures, facilitating the development of electronic and photonic devices.…”

Synthesis of Thionated Perylenediimides: State of the Art and First Investigations of an Alternative to Lawesson’s Reagent

“…Interest in them continues to grow because they combine thermal and photostability, as well as remarkable optical properties, with a high absorption coefficient and fluorescence quantum yield close to unity. They exhibit strong electron-accepting character with their two electron-withdrawing imide moieties on each side of the perylene backbone and, consequently, they are now considered as one of the best n-type semiconductors, making them ideally suited to applications in organic electronics [ 3 , 4 ], in particular for their use in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) [ 5 ], organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) [ 6 ] and organic photovoltaic (OPV) [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ] devices. However, academic interest has increased in recent years toward the development of new PDI derivatives focusing on biological applications [ 11 , 12 , 13 ], and their photochemical properties are now widely exploited for developing novel systems for applications in bioimaging, photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT) [ 14 , 15 ].…”
