The electronic properties in the quasi-one-dimensional Fabre salts are strongly affected by electronic correlations along the molecular stacks, but also by the interactions with the anions located in a cage that is formed by the methyl end groups. We systematically compare the charge transport in deuterated and protonated (TMTTF)2X salts with the anions X = Br, PF6, SbF6, and ClO4, ranging from Mott and Efros–Shklovskii variable-range hopping to activated band transport with a temperature dependent energy gap. The strong dependence of charge localization and ordering on the anion size and deuteration confirms the subtle structural involvement of the anions in the charge transport along the TMTTF stack.

AbstractGraphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are promising quasi-one-dimensional materials with various technological applications. Recently, methods that allowed for the control of GNR’s topology have been developed, resulting in connected nanoribbons composed of two distinct armchair GNR families. Here, we employed an extended version of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model to study the morphological and electronic properties of these novel GNRs. Results demonstrated that charge injection leads to the formation of polarons that localize strictly in the 9-AGNRs segments of the system. Its mobility is highly impaired by the system’s topology. The polaron displaces through hopping between 9-AGNR portions of the system, suggesting this mechanism for charge transport in this material.

A multi-dimensional relationship founded on the targeted [N] number, the energy gap (Eg) and the aromatic degree was constructed for predicting cyclobutadienoid-containing dinaphthobenzo[1,2:4,5]dicyclobutadienes (DNBDCs) with better charge transport properties.

We report on the temperature-dependent transport behaviors of large-area molecular junctions fabricated with poly-(3,4-ethylene-dioxythiophene) stabilized with polystyrene sulphonic acid (PEDOT:PSS) interlayer electrodes and the archetypal benzenethiol molecules. In this study, we investigated two different benzenethiol molecules: 4-methylbenzenethiol (MBT) and 1,4-benzenedithiol (BDT), which have the identical backbone structure but different top end-groups. The charge transport through the molecular junctions was dominated by distinct interfacial contact properties between the PEDOT:PSS electrodes and the component molecules. We also observed that the electrical characteristics of the MBT junctions are influenced by the PEDOT grain size, particularly depending on the annealing temperature.

Abstract Optoelectronic and charge transport properties of eight novel compounds are presented in this work. Density functional theory B3LYP was utilized to optimize all structures while time-dependent density functional theory was utilized for vertical excitation characteristics. Gas and solvent phases (water, THF, and DCM) were evaluated to gain insight on solid-state and solution processed devices. While the solvent phases enhanced most of the charge transport properties, there was seen a blue-shift in their absorption wavelengths. However, C2, C4, C6, and C8 in THF absorption maxima were the highest and similar to those of the gas phase (605-652 nm). Extension of the polymer size decreased the HOMO-LUMO gap energy with C7 having the lowest energy gap in the gas phase. Although tuning the properties in optoelectronic devices is challenging, these findings will assist with the design of higher quality materials that could surpass the quality of inorganic devices.
