High-performance polythiophene thin-film transistors with nematic liquid crystal modification

Preparation of conjugated polymer-based composite thin film for application in solar cell

“…Conjugated polymers have been confirmed to be applicable in electroluminescent displays [2][3][4][5][6][7][8], solar cells [9][10][11][12], and thin film transistors [13][14][15]. Polythiophenes such as regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) are among the most crucial class of conjugated polymers because of their relatively high chemical stability under ambient conditions, their high conductivity, and their electronic band gap generally falling within the visible region [16][17][18].…”
