Fused Arenes-Based Molecular and Polymeric Materials for Organic Field Effect Transistors

Irugulapati, Harista 01 May 2013 (has links)
In the past decade, tremendous progress has been made in organic field effecttransistors. Fused oligothiophenes and anthracene molecules are fascinatingmacromolecules having unique optoelectronic properties. These compounds are successfully employed as active components in optoelectronic devices including field effect transistors. Our goal is to design and synthesize conjugated molecular materials, which are highly functionalized through structural modifications in order to enhance their electronic, photonic, and morphological properties. The main desire is to synthesize novel organic fused-arenes having efficient charge carrier mobilities, as well as to optimize optical properties for organic field effect transistors (OFETs). Novel series of fused arene molecules of 9,10-di(thiophen-3-yl)anthracene (1), trans-2,5-(dianthracene-9- vinyl)thiophene (2), trans-5,5’-(dianthracene-9-yl)vinyl)- 2,2’-bithiophene (3), 5,5’-di(2 thiophene)-2,2’-bithiophene (4) , 9,10-(divinyl)anthracene core with 1- phenylcarboxypyrene (6) and polymers of poly(anthracene-co-bithiophene) (5) and poly(anthracene) (7) have been synthesized as promising materials for organic field effect transistors (OFETs). These compounds were confirmed and characterized by 1H-NMR, FT-IR, and elemental analysis. Their optical, thermal, and electronic properties were investigated using UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis respectively. Future studies will focus on evaluating OFETs performance of these material.
