TL;DR: This optimised polymer semiconductor represents a significant progress in semiconductor development, dispelling prevalent skepticism surrounding practical usability of organic semiconductors for high-performance microelectronic devices, opening up application opportunities hitherto functionally or economically inaccessible with silicon technologies, and providing an excellent structural framework for fundamental studies of charge transport in organic systems.

TL;DR: Two donor-acceptor (D-A) copolymer PDVTs based on diketopyrrolopyrole and (E)-2-(2-(thiophen-2-yl)vinyl)thiophene (TVT) units are synthesized for solution-processed field-effect transistors (FETs) to strengthen the coplanarity of the polymer backbone.

TL;DR: In this article, 1.2,3,4,5-Tetraphenylsiloles with different 1,1-substituents on the ring silicon atoms are synthesized and characterized.

TL;DR: The history, current status of research, main challenges and prospects for functional OFETs are all discussed, in order to provide a comprehensive overview of this field.

TL;DR: Photoluminescence of simple arylbenzenes with ready synthetic accessibility is enhanced by two orders of magnitude through aggregate formation; viscosity and temperature effects indicate that the emission enhancement is due to the restriction of their intramolecular rotations in the solid state.
