Abstract
The anisotropic assembly of P3HT nanocrystallites into longer nanofibrillar structures was demonstrated via sequential UV irradiation after ultrasonication to the pristine polymer solutions. The morphology of resultant films was studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM), and quantitative analysis of intra- and intermolecular ordering of polymer chains was performed by means of static absorption spectroscopy and quantitative modeling. Consequently, the approach to treat the precursor solution enhanced intra- and intermolecular ordering and reduced the incidence of grain boundaries within P3HT films, which contributed to the excellent charge carrier transport characteristics of the corresponding films (μ ≈ 12.0 × 10(-2) cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) for 96% RR P3HT).
