Two copolymers of P1 and P2 comprising benzothiadiazole, 1,4-bis（dodecyloxy）-benzene units were synthesized by Sonogashira coupling polymerization based on ethynyl-linked 1,2,5,6-naphthalenediimide.

Their thermal, optical, electrochemical as well as charge transport properties were studied. Bottom-gate top-contact organic field-effect transistors （OFETs） measurements of P1 and P2 thin films showed different charge transport behaviors. P1 displayed pure electron transport behaviors in OFETs with electron mobility up to 10^-3 cm^2·V-1·s^-1, while P2 exhibited hole transport features. The molecular structure analysis revealed that the structure of P1 has the acceptor-linker-acceptor＇ （A-L-A＇） characteristic, and P2 possesses the donor-linker-acceptor （D-L-A） structure feature. The results demonstrate that different molecular structures lead them to have distinct charge transport behaviors. In particular, the first pure electron transport copolymer in OFETs based on 1,2,5,6-naphthalenediimide is achieved.展开更多

The ethynyl linkers were found to enhance the planarity of the conjugated backbone, resulting in high electron mobilities and near-infrared absorption. The ethynyl-linked PBI acceptors showed high power conversion efficiencies(PCEs) up to 4.27% due to the high short-circuit current density(Jsc) of 8.52 mA/cm^2 and fill factor(FF) of 0.59, while the PBI acceptor without ethynyl units provided a low PCE of 3.57% in nonfullerene solar cells. The results demonstrate that ethynyl units can be applied into designing new PBI electron acceptors with improved charge transport properties and photovoltaic performance.展开更多

The study included the competition reaction between structure re-arrangement for the favourable ring-closure mechanism and ethyne addition in each step. The analysis was done by evaluating the energy difference of activation （AE）, entalphy （AH）, Gibbs （AG） of the optimized stable and transition molecules. The reaction temperatures were set at normal （T = 298 K） and combustion （T = 1200 K） condition.展开更多

Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy （FTIR）, thermogravimetric analysis （TGA） and fluorescence microscopy were employed to investigate the stability of the reactive polymer coatings in various environmental conditions. Chemical reactivity of the thin films were then tested by Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction （＂click＂ reaction）. The alkyne functional groups on poly（4- ethynyl-p-xylylene-co-p-xylylene） thin films were found to be stable under ambient storage conditions and thermally stable up to 100 ℃ when annealed at 0.08 Torr in argon. We also optimized the click reaction conditions of azide-functionalized molecules with poly（4-ethynyl-p-xylylene-co-p-xylylene）. The best reaction result was achieved, when copper concentration was 0.5 retool/L, sodium ascorbate concentration to copper concentration was 5：1. In contrast, the azide concentration and temperature had no obvious effect on the surface reaction.展开更多
