A New Poly(thienylenevinylene) Derivative with High Mobility and Oxidative Stability for Organic Thin‐Film Transistors and Solar Cells

A novel thiophene-thienylenevinylene copolymer is synthesized and evaluated for use in organic field-effect transistors and organic solar cells. PETV12T shows good solution processability and high structural organization after annealing. Organic thin-film transistors based on the polymer exhibit high mobility and a high resistance to oxidation. In addition, PETV12T shows potential as an electron donor in bulk heterojunction solar cells. Detailed facts of importance to specialist readers are published as ”Supporting Information”.
