Original Abstract

A series of copolymers contg. a glycolated 1,​4-​dithienyl-​2,​3,​5,​6-​tetrafluorophenylene unit copolymd. with thiophene, bithiophene, thienothiophene and 1,​2,​4,​5-​tetrafluorobenzene comonomer units were designed and synthesized by direct heteroarylation polymn. The optical, electrochem., electrochromic and solid-​state structural properties of the copolymers were investigated. The copolymers exhibit stable redox properties in org. solvents and promising redox properties in thin film configuration with an aq. electrolyte. Finally, the potential of the copolymers as active materials in org. electrochem. transistors (OECTs) was assessed, and promising performance was shown as an accumulation-​mode OECT material with a peak transconductance of 0.17 mS and a good on​/off ratio of 105 for the thiophene copolymer.
