“…Owing to electron-rich nitrogen and sulfur heteroatoms in a heterocyclic structure, phenothiazine (PTZ) has been well-known as an excellent electron-donating chromophore. Phenothiazine-based semiconductors are widely utilized in organic electronic devices, such as light-emitting devices, photovoltaic cells, thin film transistors, and dye-sensitized solar cells . Nonplanar butterfly conformation in phenothiazine can inhibit molecular aggregation and increase solubility of the polymers.…”

“…The D-A type molecules have attracted much attention because of their great potential applications as photoactive materials in molecular electronics, Owing to the advantages of π-conjugated molecules, ease of molding, and outstanding physical characteristics, they have found application to organic photovoltaic cells(OPVs) [1] , organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs) [2][3] , organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) [4][5][6] , and organic transparent conducting electrodes [7] . One of the most successful approaches to these low band gap polymers is the application of an alternating sequence of donor-acceptor (D-A) units in π-conjugated molecules [8] , since the semiconducting behavior of π-conjugated molecules originates from the dispersion of the HOMO and LUMO levels of the monomer into a valence and a conduction band upon chain elongation, a narrow band gap can indeed be obtained by starting from a monomer that already has a narrow HOMO-LUMO energy separation.…”
