Thus charge transport anisotropy along different directions is commonly observed in organic semiconductors. Interestingly, in this article, we found that comparable charge transport property were achieved based on the single crystals of a bis-fused tetrathiafulvalene derivative （EM-TTP） compound along two interaction directions, that is, the multiple strong S…S intermolecular interactions and the π-π stacking direction, with the measured electrical conductivity and hole mobility of 0.4 S cm-1, 0.94 cm2 V i s 1 and 0.2 S cm-1, 0.65 cm2 V-1 s-1, respectively. This finding provides us a new molecular design concept for developing novel organic semiconductors with isotropic charge transport property through the synergistic effect of multiple intermolecular interactions （such as π-π interactions） and π-π stacking.展开更多

We give evidence of charging effects in the weakly coupled one-dimensional （1D） nanowires, monitored by the temperature and the bias voltage. At low temperature, in the Coulomb blockade regime, the current flow reveals an original cooperative multi-hopping process between 1D-segments of Au-NWs, minimising the charging energy cost. Above the Coulomb blockade threshold voltage and at high temperature, the charge transport evolves into a sequential tunneling regime between the nearest- nanowires. Our analysis shows that the effective length of the Au-NWs inside the bundle is similar to the 1D localisation length of the electronic wave function （of the order of 120 nm _＋ 20 nm）, but almost two orders of magnitude larger than the diameter of the nanowire. This result confirms the high structural quality of the Au-NW segments.展开更多

However, for the traditional layer-by-layer solution fabrication procedure, the solvent used can induce organic material mixing and molecular disordering between each layer. Hence, such architecture for OTFPs can now only be formed via thermal evaporation. In this paper, a contact-film-transfer method is demonstrated to all-solution processing organic PIN OTFPs on flexible substrates. The fabricated PIN OTFPs exhibit high photoresponse and high stability under continuous mechanical bending. Hence,the method we described here should represent an important step in the development of OTFPs in the future.展开更多
