Abstract:
To evolve liquid crystals towards efficient nano-electronics, we report oxadiazole-functionalized anthraquinones showing room-temperature columnar rectangular mesophases. Exhibiting nearly temperature-independent ambipolarity with maximum hole and electron mobilities on the order of 10-4 cm2 V-1 s-1 and 10-3 cm2 V-1 s-1, respectively, it is a pioneering study on solution-processable charge-carrier mobilities of this class of deep-green dyes.
