Corannulene derivatives for organic electronics:From molecular engineering to applications

摘要

This paper intends to provide an overview for using corannulene derivatives in organic electronics such as organic field-effect transistors(OFETs),organic solar cells(OSCs),and organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs).We highlight the rational design strategies,tuning molecular orbital energy levels and arrangement in single crystals of corannulenes.The topological structure and properties of corannulene make it a unique candidate for organic electronics.
