This review highlights recent efforts on applying electron microscopy (EM) to soft (including
biological) nanomaterials. We will show how developments of both the hardware and …

Molecular packing and texture of semiconducting polymers are often critical to the
performance of devices using these materials. Although frameworks exist to quantify the …

Ground-state integer charge transfer is commonly regarded as the basic mechanism of
molecular electrical doping in both, conjugated polymers and oligomers. Here, we …

This review focuses on the structural control in thin films of regioregular poly (3‐
hexylthiophene)(P3HT), a workhorse among conjugated semiconducting polymers. It …

When an electron is removed from a conjugated polymer, such as poly (3‐hexylthiophene‐
2, 5‐diyl)(P3HT), the remaining hole and associated change in the polymer backbone …

A general method is proposed to produce oriented and highly crystalline conducting
polymer layers. It combines the controlled orientation/crystallization of polymer films by high …

Recently, significant advances have been made in understanding and manipulating the
morphology of the active layer in bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic photovoltaic (OPV) …

Thermoelectricity has gained considerable interest in the past decade due to the advent of
organic thermoelectric materials. Crystallinity and doping level crucially determine the …

Conjugated polymers may play an important role in various emerging optoelectronic
applications because they combine the chemical versatility of organic molecules and the …

Chemical doping of semiconducting polymers predominantly takes place via integer charge
transfer (ICT), where an electron is entirely removed from the host conjugated polymer and …
