Summary:
- The article reports the development of a new class of organic semiconductors based on indacenodithiophene (IDT) and diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) building blocks.
- The researchers systematically varied the molecular structure and found that the most promising material, IDT-DPP-IDT, exhibits high charge carrier mobility, good photovoltaic performance, and excellent thermal and photochemical stability.
- The findings demonstrate the potential of this new class of organic semiconductors for applications in high-performance organic electronics, such as organic field-effect transistors and organic photovoltaics.
