Abstract

Control of electron and hole transport in conjugated molecules is a challenging but essential task for deeply understanding the intrinsic charge transport behaviors as well as technological benefits for optimizing the performance of various optoelectronic devices. Here we suggest a facile route to controlling ambipolar charge transport in conjugated polymers by precise regulation of the copolymerization ratio between a relatively large electron donor and acceptor building block as a repeating unit. By varying the ratio between poly[2,5-bis(2-octyldodecyl)pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4(2H,5H)-dione-(E)-[2,2-bithiophen]-5-yl)-3-(thiophen-2-yl)acrylonitrile] (DPP-CNTVT) as an electron transport unit and DPP-selenophene-vinylene-selenophene (DPP-SVS) as a hole transport unit, mobility (μFET) and onset voltage (Von) in organic field-effect transistors are effectively modulated from p-channel [μFET,h = 6.23 ± 0.4 cm2 V–1 s–1] to n-channel [μFET,e = 6.88 ± 1.01 cm2 V–1 s–1] dominant transport. The same two DPP-based ...
