Thiophene-Phenylene Co-oligomer

Dhex-TTPTT

 app24 fig01 01

semiconducting thiophene-phenylene co-oligomer 1,4-bis(5'-hexyl-[2,2'- bithiophen]-5-yl)benzene (dHexTTPTT) crystals were grown by solvent based self-assembly technique on silicon substrate with 300 nm thermally silicon dioxide.

Image Stitching

- The surface of the complete sample was recorded in a stitched image with an enhanced ellipsometric contrast (AOI = 60°, Lambda = 510 nm).

- Even Monolayers of the semi conductive material were observed.
