The development of fluorescent probes for the detection of biologically relevant species is a burgeoning topic in the field of supramolecular chemistry. A number of available dyes such as rhodamine, coumarin, fluorescein, and cyanine have been employed in the design and synthesis of new fluorescent probes. However, diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) and its derivatives have a distinguished role in supramolecular chemistry for the design of fluorescent dyes. DPP dyes offer distinctive advantages relative

Thermally activated delayed fluorescence materials exhibited outstanding external quantum efficiencies in OLEDs along with good CIE color coordinates and improved device stabilities. Hence these are most promising for commercialization of OLEDs.

Despite the high performance of OLEDs consisting of host–guest blend systems in the emissive layer, OLEDs containing a single molecule as an emitter in the emissive layer (<italic>i.e.</italic> non-doped OLEDs) have significant advantages including easy fabrication procedures and enhanced device stability.

Abstract Two anthracene‐based star‐shaped conjugated small molecules, 5′,5″‐(9,10‐bis((4‐hexylphenyl)ethynyl)anthracene‐2,6‐diyl)bis(5‐hexyl‐2,2′‐bithiophene), HBantHBT, and 5′,5″‐(9,10‐bis(phenylethynyl)anthracene‐2,6‐diyl)bis(5‐hexyl‐2,2′‐bithiophene), BantHBT, are used as electron‐cascade donor materials by incorporating them into organic photovoltaic cells prepared using a poly((5,5‐E‐alpha‐((2‐thienyl)methylene)‐2‐thiopheneacetonitrile)‐alt‐2,6‐[(1,5‐didecyloxy)naphthalene])) (PBTADN):[6,6]

Abstract A wide‐bandgap polymer, (poly[(2,6‐(4,8‐bis(5‐(2‐ethylhexyl)thiophen‐2‐yl)‐benzo[1,2‐ b :4,5‐ b ′]dithiophene))‐ alt ‐(2,5‐(methyl thiophene carboxylate))]) (3MT‐Th), is synthesized to obtain a complementary broad range absorption when harmonized with 3,9‐bis(2‐methylene‐(3‐(1,1‐dicyanomethylene)‐indanone))‐5,5,11,11‐tetrakis(4‐hexylphenyl)‐dithieno[2,3‐ d :2′,3′‐ d ′]‐ s ‐indaceno[1,2‐ b :5,6‐ b ′]dithiophene (ITIC). The synthesized regiorandom 3MT‐Th polymer shows good solubility in n

Abstract Organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) have garnered increasing attention as a promising candidate for application in next‐generation displays and solid‐state lighting devices. The doping technique commonly used to fabricate light‐emitting layers (EMLs) of OLEDs disperses the emitting material in a host matrix to mitigate aggregation‐induced quenching (ACQ). Alternatively, owing to their high efficiency and ease of manufacture, nondoped OLEDs have been developed as a substitute for doped

A new tellurophene-based π-conjugated polymer, PDTDPPTe, was synthesized. PDTDPPTe exhibits a smaller optical band gap (E(g)(opt) = 1.25 eV) than thiophene-based PDTDPPT (E(g)(opt) = 1.30 eV). Thin-film transistors comprising PDTDPPTe displayed outstanding performance (μ(max) = 1.78 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1), I(on)/I(off) = 10(5-6)).

A new solution-processable polymeric emitter containing non-conjugated cyclohexane units was developed for high-performing TADF-OLEDs.

New anthracene-based X-shaped conjugated molecules and for use as highly soluble p-type organic semiconductors were developed and exhibited large field-effect mobilities of 0.04 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) (I(on)/I(off) = 2.8 x 10(5)) and 0.24 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) (I(on)/I(off) = 5.4 x 10(6)) for devices of and , respectively.

An optimized electrodropping system produces homogeneous core-shell microcapsules (C-S MCs) by using poly(L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and alginate. Fluorescence imaging clearly shows the C-S domain in the MC. For release control, the use of high-molecular-weight PLGA (HMW 270 000) restrains the initial burst release of protein compared to that of low-MW PLGA (LMW 40 000). Layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly of chitosan and alginate on MCs is also useful in controlling the release profile of biom
