A novel alcohol/water-soluble small molecule was obtained using a p-type planar backbone. The synthesized molecule was dissolved in organic solvents and highly polar solvents. The 3,3'-(((3,3'''-dimethyl-[2,2':5',2'':5'',2'''-quarterthiophene]-5,5'''-diyl)bis(4,1-phenylene))bis(oxy))bis(N,N-dimethylpropan-1-amine) (QTA) film exhibited a red-shifted spectrum compared with the solution spectrum owing to its many more planar molecular conformations in the solid state. According to X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements, the QTA film showed sharp diffraction peaks near 3.6–11.0°, which indicates the formation of an interdigitated and ordered structure as an out-of-plane peak (100) due to the alkyl side chain of the quarter-thiophene backbone. A comprehensive analysis of the out-of-plane and in-plane XRD data suggests that a large fraction of the QTA derivatives was oriented edge-on relative to the substrate. |
