For this purpose, two model systems have been investigated. In the prototypical donor-acceptor complex pentacene-perfluoropentacene (PEN-PFP) the optical accessibility of the charge transfer state and the possibility to fabricate highly defined interfaces by means of single crystal templates enabled a deep understanding of the spatial anisotropy of the charge transfer state formation. Transferring the obtained insights to the design of prototypical donor-acceptor devices, the importance of interface control to minimize the occurrence of charge transfer traps and thereby, to improve the device performance, could be demonstrated. The use of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) allowed for the examination of the influence of molecular packing on the excited electronic states without a change in molecular species by virtue of its inherent polymorphism. Combining structural investigations, optical absorption and emission spectroscopy, as well as Franck-Condon modeling of emission spectra revealed the nature of the optical excited state emission in relation to the structural \(\alpha \) and \(\beta \) phase over a wide temperature range from 4 K to 300 K. As a results, the phase transition kinetics of the first order \(\alpha \rightarrow \beta\) phase transition were characterized in depth and applied to the fabrication of prototypical dual luminescent OLEDs.}, subject = {Organischer Halbleiter}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Schmidt2008, author = {Schmidt, R{\"u}diger}, title = {Perylene Bisimide and Acene Derivatives as Organic Semiconductors in OTFTs}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-29314}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2008}, abstract = {This thesis deals with the synthesis of improved organic semiconductors, the detailed investigation of the molecular properties and the solid state arrangements revealed by single crystal X-ray diffraction and finally the development of structureperformance dependencies by measuring of the charge carrier mobilities of the derivatives in thin film transistors. The two main-goals of this thesis were achieved. Well soluble acene derivatives for spin-coated TFTs were obtained, showing charge carrier mobilities in the range of polymer p-type materials. Novel core-fluorinated perylene bisimide dyes were synthesized particularly and the use of electron deficient substituents lead to PBIs with outstanding air-stable mobilities in thin film transistors prepared by vacuum deposition techniques. The relationship between performance, air stability and solid state packing was elucidated in detail by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.}, subject = {D{\"u}nnschichttransistor}, language = {en} }
