Development of Novel Silicon Polymers Containing Oligothiophenes for the Innovative Organic Devices

在这项研究中，利用硅化合物的反应性合成了含低聚硫吩类的聚合物。结果表明，聚合物的三维网络结构使其具有较高的机械强度，与氧化硅玻璃和氧化铟锡(ITO)等金属氧化物具有良好的粘附性，其电导率和电离电势可通过低聚硫吩链长度和取代基来调节。

In this study, oligothiophene-containing polymers were synthesized using the reactivity of silicon compounds. It was found that the resulting polymers showed the high mechanical strength due to their three-dimensional network structures, and the excellent adhesiveness with the metal oxide substrates such as silica glass and ITO (Indium Tin Oxide).It was also found that the electrical conductivities and ionization potentials of the polymer films could be tuned by the chain length and substituents of oligothiophenes.
