TL;DR: The synthesis of a novel naphthalenediimide (NDI)-bithiazole (Tz2)-based polymer is reported, and structural, thin-film morphological, as well as charge transport and thermoelectric properties are compared to the parents.

TL;DR: Finite element device simulations show that a type II band alignment at single layer/multilayer junctions reproduces both the rectifying electrical characteristics and the photocurrent response under bias, but the zero-bias junction photocurrent and its energy dependence are not explained by conventional photovoltaic and photothermoelectric mechanisms, indicating the contributions of hot carriers.

TL;DR: In this article, density-functional methods are used to analyze the scaling of discrete oligomeric π-electron conducting molecules towards idealized isolated polymer chains, treated in periodic boundary conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors integrate high-purity semiconducting carbon nanotube films with a custom-designed hybrid inorganic-organic gate dielectric to achieve a synergistic combination of materials that circumvents conventiona...

TL;DR: End group analysis of the styrene homopolymer produced by Ti2 + Ph3C+B(C6F5)4- suggests that 1,2-regiochemistry is installed in approximately 50% of the initiation steps, which is believed to be related to the bimetallic catalyst structure.
