Abstract
Development in the field of organic electronics has hinged upon structural and fundamental advancements in the field of conjugated polymers owing to their potential advantages over inorganic and small molecule organic semiconductors. Conjugated polymers allow for the manufacture of low-cost, light-weight, flexible, organic electronic devices with outstanding applications in organic photovoltaics, organic field effect transistors (OFETs), organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), polymer solar cells (PSCs), and polymer light emitting diodes. Chemists can design and synthesize a large number of conjugated polymers with different architectures and functional moieties to fulfill the requirements of such organic devices. This chapter focuses on different conjugated polymer systems with 1D and 2D topological structures and summarizes the performances of the different types of conjugated polymers in devices such as OLEDs, OFETs, and PSCs. Finally, future research opportunities in this exciting research field are discussed.
