Journal ArticleDOI

Templating organic semiconductors via self-assembly of polymer colloids.

TL;DR: A route for producing semiconducting polymer blends is demonstrated in which a doped pi-conjugated polymer is forced into a three-dimensionally continuous minor phase by the self-assembly of colloidal particles and block copolymers.
Journal ArticleDOI

A thermally stable semiconducting polymer.

TL;DR: Prior to this report, there was no known example of a semiconducting polymer that is both stable in air at (and above) room temperature and capable of withstanding high temperatures for extended periods of time.
Journal ArticleDOI

End-Capping Effect of a Narrow Bandgap Conjugated Polymer on Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells

TL;DR: Device performances of BHJ solar cells based on poly[(4,4-didodecyldithieno[3,2-b:2’,3’-d]silole)-2,6-diyl-alt-(2,1,3-benzoxadiazole)-4,7- diyl]and PC₇₁BM improve by capping the chain ends with thiophene fragments.
