Abstract

Copolymers composed of diketopyrrolopyrrole and phenylene units with different numbers of fluorine subsitution are synthesized. When the effect of the number of fluorine substitution on the n-channel transporting property is investigated, the polymer with four fluorine substitutions exhibits the best n-type charge-transporting behavior with an electron mobility of 2.36 cm(2) V(-1) s(1).
