Solid State Structural and Electrical Characterization of N-Benzyl and N-Alkyl Naphthalene 1,4,5,8-Tetracarboxylic Diimides
16 February 2001
We have recently reported a new series of high mobility, easily processed n-channel organic FET semiconductors with the NTDCI framework. In this manuscript, we present single crystal x-ray structures of three such compounds, and current-voltage data on two of the crystals. Both herringbone and stacking motifs are observed. Fluoro substituents on the groups attached to nitrogen determine both the solid state morphology and the distribution of electron traps.
