High electron transporting character (electron mobility on the order of 0.5 cm2 V-1 s-1); Perylenebis(dicarboximide)s (PDIs) can be used as n-type materials for organic fieldeffect transistors (OFETs); Excellent candidates as electron accepting building blocks for organic photovoltaics (OPVs); IR transparent pigment for coating application.

The binding energy and electronic coupling of perylenediimide (PDI) pi-stacked dimers were calculated using M06-2X/6-31++G** as a function of stacking geometry. Due to shallow minima in the potential energy surface, electronic coupling can vary by over an order of magnitude

Perylene tetracarboxylic diimide (PTCDI) derivatives stand out as one of the most investigated families of air-stable n-type organic semiconductors for organic thin-film transistors. Here, we use density functional theory to illustrate how it is possible to control the charge-transport parameters
Intrinsically stretchable active layers for organic field-effect transistors (OFET) are discussed. Polymer structural modification & post-polymerization modifications are 2 methods to achieve this.
Solution-processed organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) have emerged as a promising clean energy generating technology due to their ease of fabrication, potential to enable low-cost manufacturing via printing or coating techniques, and ability to be incorporated onto light weight, flexible substrates.
