Abstract
The microstructure of small molecular semiconductors can be readily altered via side group-engineering although they have same conjugated core. Here, we study a variation of morphology and charge transport properties about derivatives of triethylsilylethynyl-modified dibenzochrysene (TES-DBC) depending on side group size. It was verified that the TES-DBC combined with smaller side group developed more favorable morphology to charge carrier transport. The TES-DBC derivative with thienyl (DTTES-DBC), the smallest side group, formed well-connected crystal domain with well-ordered molecular assemblies which facilitate fast charge carrier transport. In addition, a high (1,2,4-trichlorobenzene; TCB) and low (chlorobenzene; CB) boiling point was used as processing solvent to observe the effect of the film fabrication time on the molecular ordering according to side group size.
