Side-chain engineering is a versatile approach for optimizing these semiconducting materials, but minor modifications can significantly impact material properties and device performance. Carbohydrate side chains have been previously introduced to improve the solubility of semiconducting polymers in greener solvents. Despite this achievement, these materials exhibit suboptimal performance and stability in field-effect transistors. In this work, structure–property relationships are explored to enhance the device performance of carbohydrate-bearing semiconducting polymers. Toward this objective, a series of isoindigo-based polymers with carbohydrate side chains of varied carbon-spacer lengths is developed. Material and device characterizations reveal the effects of side chain composition on solid-state packing and device performance. With this new design, charge mobility is improved by up to three orders of magnitude compared to the previous studies. Processing–property relationships are also established by modulating annealing conditions and evaluating device stability upon air exposure. Notably, incidental oxygen-doping effects lead to increased charge mobility after 10 days of exposure to ambient air, correlated with decreased contact resistance. Bias stress stability is also evaluated. This work highlights the importance of understanding structure–property relationships toward the optimization of device performance.","PeriodicalId":110,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Electronic Materials","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142374357","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Time-resolved THz spectroscopy (TRTS) is used to study the excited carrier dynamics of Si hyperdoped with 0.5, 1, and 2%. The two photoexcitation wavelengths enable us to understand the temperature-dependent carrier transport in the hyperdoped region in comparison with the Si region. Temperature significantly influences the magnitude of transient conductivity and decay time when photoexcited by light with a wavelength of 400 nm. Due to the differential mobilities in the Si and hyperdoped regions, such dependence is absent under 266-nm excitation. Consistent with the literature, the charge-carrier lifetime decreases with increasing dopant concentration. It is found that the photoconductivity becomes less temperature-dependent as the dopant concentration increases. In the literature, the photodetection range of Si:Te extends to a wavelength of 5.0 µm at a temperature of 20 K. The simulation shows that carrier diffusion, driven by concentration gradients, is strongly temperature dependent and impacts transient photoconductivity decay curves.

Understanding and controlling the charge transport mechanism between FPs and carbon nanotubes are critical to achieving functional reproducibility and exploring novel synergetic effects. This work demonstrates a novel phenomenon of photocurrent generation in field-effect transistors based on the conjugation of an individual single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and FPs. When studying the effect of gate voltage on the photoresponse, reversible switching from fast positive to a slow negative photoresponse in bionanohybrids associated with depletion and accumulation modes, respectively is observed. The latter demonstrates a stable memory effect after the light is turned off. It is revealed that in depletion mode, the charge carriers from the protein are not trapped at the interface due to effective screening by the gate potential. It is suggested that the main mechanism in photoresponse switching is a competitive effect between photogating and effective photodoping of the SWCNT by charges trapped at the nanotube interface. The noticeable effect of water molecules can support proton transfer as the main mechanism of charge transfer. This result illustrates that SWCNT/FP bionanohybrids bear great potential for the realization of novel optoelectronic devices.","PeriodicalId":110,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Electronic Materials","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.2,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142374330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
