“…In particular, over the past few decades, polycyclic aromatic systems (PASs) have become the workhorse of organic electronics. 1,2 This is due to the molecular properties that characterize these systems: they are πconjugated, which allows for conductance, 1,3 yet are relatively stable, as compared to other conjugated systems, e.g., polyenes; 4 they tend to pack closely, 5,6 which is important for charge mobility; 7 and they can be relatively easily modified through substitution with functional groups or annulation, which allows for tuning their electronic properties, [8][9][10] as well as other attributes, e.g., solubility. 11,12 The ability to tune their electronic properties is one of the greatest advantages of PASs as organic electronics because, in order to perform in such a capacity, the molecule must meet certain requirements.…”
