ABSTRACT Semiconducting polythiophenes display electroactive properties which make them excellent candidates for applications as materials. Ability to undergo doping and switch between different oxidation states allow tuning the chemical physical of polythiophenes. Furthermore, ability integrate into copolymers, hybrid composites with metals inorganic materials useful in electronic biomedical applications. The capability vary final material low production cost high processability thin films...
Semiconducting polymers have been developed during the last few decades and are currently used in various organic electronics applications. Regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) is most employed semiconducting polymer for The development of living Grignard metathesis polymerization (GRIM) allowed synthesis P3HT with well-defined molecular weights functional end groups. A large number block copolymers containing reported, their opto-electronic properties investigated. performance...
Two new donor–acceptor small molecules based on benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene (BDT) and benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (BT) were designed synthesized. Small 4,4′-[(4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene-2,6-diyl)bis(2,2′-bithiophene)-5,5′-diyl]bis(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole) (BDT-TT-BT) 4,4′-(4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene-2,6-diyl)bis[7-(2,2′-bithiophene-5-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole] (BDT-BT-TT) are structural isomers with...
Determination of absolute molecular weight regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) plays an important role as many applications rely on its weight. 1H-NMR spectroscopy provides the and end group functionality moderate it is a simple method that can be used routine analysis technique compared with MALDI-TOF MS.

Nanoparticles (NPs) have shown promise in both radiotherapy and chemotherapy. NPs are mainly transported along cellular microtubules (MTs). Docetaxel (DTX) is a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug that can manipulate the MT network to maximize its clinical benefit. However, effect of DTX on NP behaviour has not yet been fully elucidated. We gold diameters 15 50 nm at concentration 0.2 nM investigate size dependence behaviour. Meanwhile, concentrations 0, 10 were uphold relevance. Our study...
ABSTRACT Synthesis of two conducting polymers containing 3‐hexylthiophene and 3‐[2‐(2‐(2‐methoxyethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy]thiophene is demonstrated. In thin‐film transistors, the high‐molecular‐weight polymer shows an average mobility 4.2 × 10 −4 cm 2 V −1 s . Most importantly, have high conductivity upon doping with iodine also stability in doped state conductivities measured even after 1 month. Furthermore, causes transparency to thin films are resistant common organic solvents. All these...
The adsorption of polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) on metallic substrates is interest in the field optoelectronics, due to possibility designing complex materials with tunable properties through surface functionalization organic molecules. Much modeling research this has focused perfectly symmetrical (pristine) substrates. There limited information effect substrate irregularities, such as adatoms, binding PAHs onto Here, we examine how presence substrate-bound adatoms affects coronene and...
