TL;DR: In this article, a linear asymmetric oligoarene 6-methy)-anthra[2,3-b]benzo[d]thiophene (Me-ABT) is synthesized and its high-quality microribbons are grown by a solution process.
Abstract: Oligoarenes as an alternative group of promising semiconductors in organic optoelectronics have attracted much attention. However, high-performance and low-cost opto-electrical devices based on linear asymmetric oligoarenes with nano/microstructures are still rarely studied because of difficulties both in synthesis and high-quality nano/microstructure growth. Here, a novel linear asymmetric oligoarene 6-methy)-anthra[2,3-b]benzo[d]thiophene (Me-ABT) is synthesized and its high-quality microribbons are grown by a solution process. The solution of Me-ABT exhibits a moderate fluorescence quantum yield of 0.34, while the microribbons show a glaucous light emission. Phototransistors based on an individual Me-ABT microribbon prepared by a solution-phase self-assembly process showed a high mobility of 1.66 cm 2 V ―1 s ―1 , a large photoresponsivity of 12 000 A W ―1 , and a photocurrent/dark- current ratio of 6000 even under low light power conditions (30 μW cm ―2 ). The measured photoresponsivity of the devices is much higher than that of inorganic single-crystal silicon thin film transistors. These studies should boost the development of the organic semiconductors with high-quality microstructures for potential application in organic optoelectronics.

TL;DR: A general route was demonstrated to realize the patterning of reduced graphene oxide sheets (RGOs) on a variety of substrates by a combination of modulating the solution wettability of the substrates and spin-coating process.
Abstract: A general route was demonstrated to realize the patterning of reduced graphene oxide sheets (RGOs) on a variety of substrates by a combination of modulating the solution wettability of the substrates and spin-coating process. By virtue of usual surface treatment technique or application of mixed solvent, the GO solution wettability can be controlled precisely. The wettability modulation combined with spin-coating and reducing process brings on patterning of RGOs. This simple but effective, general, and low-cost approach holds great promise for numerous potential applications in organic electronics, flexible transparent conducting thin films, and flexible semi-transparent sensors.
