Mechanical Properties of Organic Electronic Polymers on the Nanoscale (Adv. Electron. Mater. 3/2022)

Abstract

High Mobility Polymers In article number 2101019, Deepak Venkateshvaran and colleagues present how the surface nanomechanical texture of high mobility polymers used for organic electronics is quantified together with their depth-dependent viscoelastic response. Measured data of the nanomechanical properties in a well-known organic semiconducting polymer is presented; blue represents the homogeneous Young's modulus within polymer grains, red represents grain boundary moduli, and topography represents modulus strength.
