The award of the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 2000 to Professors Alan Heeger, Alan
MacDiarmid, and Hideki Shirakawa for their discovery that “doped” polyacetylene can …

Rod–coil block copolymers are an increasingly important class of molecules for the self-
assembly of functional polymer systems, many of which have rodlike chain conformations …

In this study the morphology of spin-casted films of polymers blended with [6, 6]-phenyl C61-
butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) has been studied. It was found that the lateral structure …

The self-assembly of a series of monodisperse rod− coil block copolymers is studied in the
weak segregation limit. This unusual weakly segregated system consists of polyisoprene …

Materials with large chiral optical activity at visible wavelengths are of great interest in
photonics, particularly as a route to chiral optical metamaterials. Here, we demonstrate the …

Blends of the low-bandgap polymer poly [(9, 9-dioctylfluorenyl-2, 7-diyl)-co-5, 5-(4', 7'-di-2-
thienyl-2', 1', 3'-benzothiadiazole](APFO-3) and the fullerene derivative [6, 6]-phenyl–C 61 …

Self-assembled functional rod–coil block copolymers (poly (3-hexylthiophene)-b-poly (n-
butyl acrylate-stat-acrylate perylene)) containing electron donor (poly (3-hexylthiophene)) …

The N-annulation of a benzothioxanthene imide (BTI) derivative is demonstrated herein
affording the unprecedented thiochromenocarbazole imide (TCI). The impact of this …

Abstract The fused, bicyclic molecule, 2, 1, 3‐Benzothiadiazole (BT), has become a key
ingredient in the design of new organic semiconductors for light emission and energy …

The influence of SiO2/TiO2 nanocomposites on the performance of organic light-emitting
diodes (OLEDs) based on poly (9, 9′-di-n-octylfluorenyl-2, 7-diyl)(PFO) and various …
