TL;DR: Interestingly, these polymers actually show a bleaching of their neutral absorptions in the near-infrared region and have an electrochromic contrast up to 30% at a switching speed of 3 s and are among the lowest band gap polymers reported.

TL;DR: In this paper, the acceptor unit of TQ1 has been modified by adding a pyridopyrazine-based acceptor, substituting the acceptors with fluorine atoms, or replacing the alkoxy side chain with an alkyl.

TL;DR: In this article, the optical characterization of near-infrared (NIR) emitters for polymer light-emitting diode (PLEDs) applications based on the copolymerization of a phthalimide-thiophene host polymer with a low-gap emitter containing the bisthienyl(benzotriazolothiadiazole) unit is reported.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the synthesis, characterization, and device incorporation of copolymers based on a common green-emitting polyfluorene but containing a small proportion of a low energy gap donor-acceptor-donor unit for red emission in photo- and electro-luminescence.

TL;DR: In this paper, a family of phthalimide-thiophene copolymers with linear and branched alkyl chains attached to the imide nitrogen have been synthesized and their optical and electronic properties were investigated along with their applications in OFETs and LEFETs.
