Rational molecular design for multi-functional organic semiconducting materials

Liu, Qian (2021) Rational molecular design for multi-functional organic semiconducting materials. PhD by Publication, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This thesis demonstrates a comprehensive study of multifunctional applications of low-cost solution-processable organic semiconducting materials. It presents a series of rationally designed predominantly dye based innovative soft semiconductors with their generic optoelectronic properties. The performance of these materials’ application in various devices, including transistors, solar cells, memory devices and displays, are evaluated through world class collaboration to establish the structure-property relationship. In doing so, we not only developed several high-performance materials but also found that fused ring incorporation into the conjugated backbone is an effective strategy to construct multifunctional semiconductors towards flexible and printed electronics.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
