TL;DR: In this article, an inverse relationship between mechanical ductility and mobility/molecular ordering in conjugated polymer systems was determined definitively through systematic interrogation of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) films with varied degrees of molecular ordering and associated charge transport performance.

TL;DR: In this paper, a donor-acceptor (1)-donor/acceptor(2) polymer: 5-decylheptadecyl (5-DH), 2-tetradecyl(2-DT), and linear n-octadecyl chains are substituted onto a polymer backbone consisting of terthiophene units (T) between two different electron acceptors, benzothiadiazole (B), and diketopyrrolopyrrole (D), pTBTD, to afford pTBP-5DH, pTPT

TL;DR: Data-driven approaches to the determination of process-structure-property relationships, as well as the transferability of structural control strategies for P3HT to other conjugated polymer systems and applications are discussed.

TL;DR: Image analysis coupled with mechanistic interpretation supports the supposition that "tie chains" provide for charge transport pathways between nanoaggregated structures and the "microfluidic flow enhanced semiconducting polymer crystal engineering" was successfully applied to a representative electron transport polymer and a nonhalogenated solvent.

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of fiber length and anisotropy on macroscopic charge transport performance was evaluated using an organic field effect transistor (OFET) architecture, and both aged and sonicated solutions exhibited charge carrier mobilities that were an order of magnitude higher than that obtained for pristine samples.
