ABSTRACTThe use of semi-empirical quantum chemistry to calculate the exciton binding energy of conjugated polymers is discussed. Both the Pariser-Parr-Pople (PPP) model with Ohno parameterization and the models present in the MOPAC program overestimate the exciton binding energy relative to that observed in solid-state materials. Inclusion of Coulomb screening from adjacent chains may correct this overestimation. The solvation energy of a point charge in polyacetylene is calculated as 0.9eV, using Hartree-Fock theory to describe the polarization induced in the solvent chains. It is argued that including screening by modifying the electron-electron interaction energy of the PPP model introduces physically unreasonable side effects and is not consistent with the 0.9eV solvation energy of a point charge. Electron-hole screening models are then discussed along with the need to consider the relative time scales of the electron-hole motion and the dielectric response.

Higher Carrier Mobility

Conjugated polymers with narrower bandgaps usually induce higher carrier mobility, which is vital for the improved thermoelectric performance of polymeric materials. Herein, two indacenodithiophene (IDT) based donor–acceptor (D-A) conjugated polymers (PIDT-BBT and PIDTT-BBT) were designed and synthesized, both of which exhibited low-bandgaps. PIDTT-BBT showed a more planar backbone and carrier mobility that was two orders of magnitude higher (2.74 × 10−2 cm2V−1s−1) than that of PIDT-BBT (4.52 × 10−4 cm2V−1s−1). Both exhibited excellent thermoelectric performance after doping with 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane, where PIDTT-BBT exhibited a larger conductivity (0.181 S cm−1) and a higher power factor (1.861 μW m−1 K−2) due to its higher carrier mobility. The maximum power factor of PIDTT-BBT reached 4.04 μW m−1 K−2 at 382 K. It is believed that conjugated polymers with a low bandgap are promising in the field of organic thermoelectric materials.
