To fully realize anisotropic optoelectronic properties of conjugated polymers (CPs), macroscopic alignment of CPs is essential. CP processing approaches have been widely investigated to achieve CP alignment. However, insight on molecular design to enable directed CP alignment has not been fully understood. In this presentation, we present an investigation on the molecular design factors largely affecting CP alignment characteristics. New CPs are designed, synthesized, and characterized for the chain alignment capability based on various molecular design factors; planarity of CP main chain, effect of the side chain design, intramolecular interaction moiety for induced chain planarity, and surface energy of CPs. |
