Abstract
Two new fluorenone-based conjugated polymers, F1 and F2, were synthesized via the Stille cross-coupling polymerization. Spectral measurements showed that both polymers had optical band gaps of 1.99eV and 1.89eV, respectively, calculated based on the film onset absorption edge. Cyclic voltammetric studies gave HOMO/LUMO energy levels of −5.18eV/−3.19eV and −5.40eV/−3.51eV, respectively, and the polymers were thermally stable at temperatures over 300°C. Organic field-effect transistor and bulk-heterojunction solar cell performance characteristics of both polymers as p-type semiconductors were evaluated.
