Abstract Prediction of material properties of newly designed molecules is a long-term goal in organic electronics. In general, it is a difficult problem, because the material properties are dominated by the unknown packing structure. We present a practical method to obtain charge transport properties of organic single crystals, without use of experimental single-crystal data. As a demonstration, we employ the promising molecule C10–DNBDT. We succeeded in quantitative evaluation of charge mobility of the single crystal using our quantum wave-packet dynamical simulation method. Here, the single-crystal data is computationally obtained by searching possible packing structures from structural formula of the molecule. We increase accuracy in identifying the actual crystal structure from suggested ones by using not only crystal energy but also similarity between calculated and experimental powder X-ray diffraction patterns. The proposed methodology can be a theoretical design technique for efficiently developing new high-performance organic semiconductors, since it can estimate the charge transport properties at early stage in the process of material development.

<p>We have considered three two-dimensional (2D) π-conjugated polymer networks (i.e., covalent organic frameworks, COFs) materials based on pyrene, porphyrin, and zinc-porphyrin cores connected <i>via</i> diacetylenic linkers. Their electronic structures, investigated at the density functional theory global-hybrid level, are indicative of valence and conduction bands that have large widths, ranging between 1 and 2 eV. Using a molecular approach to derive the electronic couplings between adjacent core units and the electron-vibration couplings, the three π-conjugated 2D COFs are predicted to have ambipolar charge-transport characteristics with electron and hole mobilities in the range of 65-95 cm<sup>2</sup>V<sup>-1</sup>s<sup>-1</sup>. Such predicted values rank these 2D COFs among the highest-mobility organic semiconductors. In addition, we have synthesized the zinc-porphyrin based 2D COF and carried out structural characterization via powder X-ray diffraction and surface area analysis, which demonstrates the feasability of these electroactive networks.</p>

In this study, we present an effective molecular design strategy to develop the n-type charge transport characteristics in organic semiconductors, using ring-fused double perylene diimides (DPDIs) as the model compounds.
