With their versatile absorption, fluorescence, n-type semiconducting and (photo-) stability
properties, perylene bisimides have evolved as the most investigated compounds among …

Conspectus This Account describes a body of research on the design, synthesis, and
application of a new class of electronic materials made from conjugated macrocycles. Our …

It is very challenging to introduce azaborine into an electron-deficient arene system because
of unfavorable intramolecular electrophilic borylation reaction. In this report, we adopted a …

We describe the design and synthesis of a new graphene ribbon architecture that consists of
perylenediimide (PDI) subunits fused together by ethylene bridges. We created a prototype …

A perylenediimide-based (PDI-based) small molecular (SM) acceptor with both an extended
π-conjugation and a three-dimensional structure concurrently is critical for achieving high …

A series of PDI dimers featuring various arylene linkers are developed as electron acceptors
in organic solar cells. Using P3HT as the donor, power conversion efficiency of up to 2.3% is …

A series of Pt (II)–Schiff base complexes were synthesized as triplet sensitizers for the
purpose of tuning the singlet and triplet energy levels so as to minimize energy loss during …

This review covers the various classes of molecular structures that may be used as the basis
for the synthesis of organic semiconductors that favor electron transport in field-effect …

Here, we compare analogous cyclic and acyclic π-conjugated molecules as n-type
electronic materials and find that the cyclic molecules have numerous benefits in organic …

The n‐doping of several conjugated co‐polymers based on perylene diimide (PDI) and
napthalene diimide (NDI) acceptors co‐polymerized with ethynylene, ethylene, and …
