General description

Thieno(3,2-b)thiophene (TT) is an electron rich conjugated polymer that has a quinoidal structure with a narrow band gap. It facilitates a strong intermolecular networking.

Application

TT may be used as conjugated side chains in the synthesis of donor-acceptor copolymers. It finds potential applications in the enhancement of power conversion efficiency (PCE) for organic solar cells.

Multilevel metal interconnects are crucial for the development of large-scale organic integrated circuits. In particular, three-dimensional integrated circuits require a large number of vertical interconnects between layers. Here, we present a novel multilevel metal interconnect scheme that involves solvent-free patterning
