T1  - 12b,24b-Diborahexabenzo[a,c,fg,l,n,qr]pentacene: A Low-LUMO Boron-Doped Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon
JF  - Angewandte Chemie International Edition
N2  - Herein we devise and execute a new synthesis of a pristine boron-doped nanographene. Our target boron-doped nanographene was designed based on DFT calculations to possess a low LUMO energy level and a narrow band gap derived from its precise geometry and B-doping arrangement. Our synthesis of this target, a doubly B-doped hexabenzopentacene (B\(_{2}\)-HBP), employs six net C−H borylations of an alkene, comprising consecutive hydroboration/electrophilic borylation/dehydrogenation and BBr\(_{3}\)/AlCl\(_{3}\)/2,6-dichloropyridine-mediated C−H borylation steps. As predicted by our calculations, B\(_{2}\)-HBP absorbs strongly in the visible region and emits in the NIR up to 1150 nm in o-dichlorobenzene solutions. Furthermore, B\(_{2}\)-HBP possesses a very low LUMO level, showing two reversible reductions at −1.00 V and −1.17 V vs. Fc\(^{+}\)/Fc. Our methodology is surprisingly selective despite its implementation of unfunctionalized precursors and offers a new approach to the synthesis of pristine B-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

T1  - Single-crystal field-effect transistors of new Cl\(_{2}\)-NDI polymorph processed by sublimation in air
JF  - Nature Communications
N2  - Physical properties of active materials built up from small molecules are dictated by their molecular packing in the solid state. Here we demonstrate for the first time the growth of n-channel single-crystal field-effect transistors and organic thin-film transistors by sublimation of 2,6-dichloro-naphthalene diimide in air. Under these conditions, a new polymorph with two-dimensional brick-wall packing mode (\(\beta\)-phase) is obtained that is distinguished from the previously reported herringbone packing motif obtained from solution (\(\alpha\)-phase). We are able to fabricate single-crystal field-effect transistors with electron mobilities in air of up to 8.6 cm\(^{2}\)V\(^{-1}\)s\(^{-1}\) (\(\alpha\)-phase) and up to 3.5 cm\(^{2}\)V\(^{-1}\)s\(^{-1}\) (\(\beta\)-phase) on n-octadecyltriethoxysilane-modified substrates. On silicon dioxide, thin-film devices based on \(\beta\)-phase can be manufactured in air giving rise to electron mobilities of 0.37 cm\(^{2}\)V\(^{-1}\)s\(^{-1}\). The simple crystal and thin-film growth procedures by sublimation under ambient conditions avoid elaborate substrate modifications and costly vacuum equipment-based fabrication steps.

T1  - Perylene Bisimide and Acene Derivatives as Organic Semiconductors in OTFTs
T1  - Perylenbisimid- und Acenderivate als organische Halbleiter in organischen Dünnschichttransistoren
N2  - 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.
N2  - Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war die Synthese verbesserter organischer Halbleitermaterialien, detaillierte Untersuchungen ihrer Moleküleigenschaften sowie ihrer Packung mittels von Röntgenstrukturanalysen von Einkristallen sowie die Ableitung von Struktur-Eigenschaftsbeziehung mit Hilfe der Ladungsträgerbeweglichkeiten in Dünnschichttransistoren. Die beiden Hauptziele der Arbeit erreicht werden. Gutlösliche Acenderivate für Spin-Coating Verfahren konnten hergestellt werden deren TFTs Ladungsträgerbeweglichkeiten im Bereich polymerer p- Halbleitermaterialien liegen. Vor allem wurden jedoch neuartige Perylenbisimidfarbstoffe synthetisiert, die durch Einführung elektronenziehender Halogenreste herausragende Elektronenbeweglichkeiten in Dünnschichttransitoren an Luft aufwiesen (durch Vakuumsublimation hergestellt). Der Zusammenhang zwischen Ladungsträgermobilität, Luftstabilität und Festkörperpackung wurde detailliert durch Einkristallstrukturanalysen aufgeklärt.
