Abstract

Stable radical adducts of the TTM series bearing carbazolyl or indolyl fragments show bipolar transport properties with mobility values among the highest detected in glassy small molecules. Bipolarity is attributed to the radical character, while the heterocyclic ring confers the adducts the glassy morphological states and the non-dispersive regimes for charge transport.
