Synthesis, solution-processed thin film transistors and solid solutions of silylethynylated diazatetracenes†
Abstract
Silylethynylated diazatetracenes were synthesized in a more efficient way and applied as n-type semiconductors in solution-processed thin film transistors with an electron mobility of 0.65 cm2 V−1 s−1. Co-crystallization of these diazatetracenes with silylethynylated tetracene resulted in solid solutions, which exhibited interesting electrical and optical properties.
