Conjugated donor-acceptor copolymers comprised of electron-deficient 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic diimide (NDI) linked to a series of relatively electron-rich aromatics via ethynyl spacers were synthesized and characterized. While LUMO levels remained constant at -3.75 eV, HOMO levels were sensitive to the relatively electron-rich aromatic donors and systematically tuned from -5.68 to -5.17 eV. Regardless of the electron-rich comonomer, fluorescence and X-ray diffraction data were consistent with the polymer chains being assembled through the stacking of NDI moieties in an offset face-to-face fashion rather than alternating donor-acceptor stacks.

Conjugated polymers are an important class of chromophores for optoelectronic devices. Understanding and controlling their excited state properties, in particular, radiative and non-radiative recombination processes are among the greatest challenges that must be overcome. We report the synthesis and characterization of a molecularly encapsulated naphthalene diimide-based polymer, one of the most successfully used motifs, and explore its structural and optical properties. The molecular encapsulation enables a detailed understanding of the effect of interpolymer interactions. We reveal that the non-encapsulated analogue P(NDI-2OD-T) undergoes aggregation enhanced emission; an effect that is suppressed upon encapsulation due to an increasing π-interchain stacking distance. This suggests that decreasing π-stacking distances may be an attractive method to enhance the radiative properties of conjugated polymers in contrast to the current paradigm where it is viewed as a source of optical quenching.

In this work, we report the synthesis, characterization, and application of two regioirregular naphthalenediimide (NDI)-based alternating conjugated polymers, namely P1 and P2, in which nitrile-substituted moiety, 2,3-bis(thiophen-2-yl)acrylonitrile and N

Manipulating the alkyl-chain branching position afforded two naphthalene diimide-based polymers (C1 and C3). The optoelectronic properties, including the absorption spectra and electronic energy levels, conformations and photovoltaic properties of the two

Two air-stable polymeric semiconductors were rationally designed and synthesized, namely PNDI-DPP and PNDI-T(DPP)T, containing naphthalenediimide (NDI) units and diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP). The coplanar thiophene-substituted DPP moieties act as donors rather than acceptors, even though DPP is an electron-deficient core. In a bottom-gate/top-contact device architecture, the effect of changing the number of thiophene linkers on the performance of the two completely different OFETs was investigated. PNDI-T(DPP)T presented unipolar p-type behaviour with an average hole mobility of 0.02 cm2 V-1 s-1, while PNDI-DPP exhibited ambipolar transport with average electron and hole mobilities of 5.7 × 10-3 and 1.6 × 10-3 cm2 V-1 s-1, respectively. Moreover, OFETs based on the two polymers showed good air-stability with negligible changes after being stored under ambient conditions for over 3 months. This journal is
