“…Organic semiconductors are of great interest for their intrinsic scientific challenge and potential applications in organic electronic devices such as organic light-emitting diodes (Lin et al, 2016), plastic solar cells (Gao et al, 2017;Skrypnychuk et al, 2016;Yang et al, 2016), organic lasers (Kuehne & Gather, 2016;Zhang et al, 2016), (bio)chemical sensors (Wang et al, 2017;Haughey et al, 2016) and organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) (Zhao et al, 2017;Sung et al, 2016;Raghuwanshi et al, 2016;Matsushima et al, 2016;Ford et al, 2016). Compared with p-channel materials, the development of high-performance ambient-stable n-channel materials has largely lagged due to the fact that the transport in n-channel conductors is degraded easily by air, and their low electronic affinity hinders efficient injection of electrons into the empty lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO).…”
