Abstract

Abstract Two novel dihydropyrroloindoledione (DPID)-based copolymers have been synthesized in a two directional approach and characterized (gel permeation chromatography (GPC), ultraviolet-visible (UV–vis), cyclic voltammetry, and computational models). These planar, broad absorption copolymers show promise for use in organic electronics, with deep energy levels and low bandgaps. The two-directional Knoevenagel ...
