Self-Assembly of Thienylenevinylene Molecular Wires to Semiconducting Gels with Doped Metallic Conductivity
Oligo(thienylenevinylene) (OTV) based gelators with high conductivity are reported. When compared to OTV1, OTV2 having an increased conjugation length forms relatively strong gels with a metallic conductivity of 4.8 S/cm upon doping which is the highest value reported for an organogelator. This new class of conducting gels is expected to be useful for organic electronics and photonics application, particularly for bulk heterojunction devices.
