Abstract:The “von Neumann bottleneck” is a formidable
challenge
in conventional computing, driving exploration into artificial synapses.
Organic semiconductor materials show promise but are hindered by issues
such as poor adhesion and a high elastic modulus. Here, we combine
polyisoindigo-bithiophene (PIID-2T) with grafted poly(dimethylsiloxane)
(PDMS) to synthesize the triblock-conjugated polymer (PIID-2T-PDMS).
The polymer exhibited substantial enhancements in adhesion (4.8–68.8
nN) and reductions in elastic modulus… Show more
