Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of conjugated polymer materials, and particularly relates to a side chain controllable ring-opening polymer semiconductor material, a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, with the increasing demand for wearable devices and implantable electronic products, flexible and stretchable electronic technology has developed rapidly. In many fields such as wearable applications, display technology and energy storage systems, stretchable organic semiconductors show wide application potential. As the core part of flexible electronic devices, the organic semiconductor active layer not only needs to have good electrical properties, but also must have excellent mechanical flexibility and ductility. For a long time, researchers have explored various implementation strategies from different angles, including structural engineering, blending with elastomers, and developing intrinsically stretchable organic semiconductor materials.
[0003] The research and development of intrinsically stretchable organic semiconductor materials focuses on starting from the design of polymer molecular structure, and constructing a material system that has good stretchability without the need for macrostructure regulation, elastomer blending or external small molecule additives. This kind of material is suitable for high-efficiency solution processing technology, which helps to realize large-area device preparation and effectively avoids complex phase separation phenomena. In addition, the solution processing method also provides a variety of ways to regulate the morphology of the solid film, such as adjusting the solution concentration, additive type, solvent temperature and other parameters to realize systematic optimization of the film performance.
[0004] Ring-opening polymerization is a chemical reaction in which cyclic monomers generate linear polymers through an addition ring-opening process. The mechanism of this reaction combines the efficiency of chain polymerization with the controllability of step polymerization, while effectively avoiding the typical defects of traditional polymerization methods such as multiple side reactions and wide molecular weight distribution. Its core advantages are reflected in its excellent controllability and mild reaction conditions.
[0005] Introducing this highly controllable ring-opening polymerization strategy into the conjugated polymer synthesis system, especially introducing stretchable segments in the side chain modification, shows multiple structural advantages:
[0006] 1. Low steric hindrance effect brought by linear structure
[0007] The side chain generated by ring-opening polymerization is linear in structure, and its molecular conformation is relaxed and the steric hindrance is significantly smaller than that of branched structure. This low steric hindrance characteristic effectively avoids the interference of the side chain with the π-π stacking of the conjugated main chain, so that the carrier migration rate along the main chain direction can be maintained, laying a structural foundation for maintaining the performance of polymer semiconductors.
[0008] 2. Controllable introduction of stretchable segments
[0009] The controllable property of ring-opening polymerization makes the introduction of stretchable chain segments have molecular weight control and end functional group selectivity. This controllable ability ensures better molecular weight controllability when introducing stretchable chain segments on conjugated units, thereby realizing quantitative design of material stretchability.
[0010] 3. Improvement of mechanical properties
[0011] By molecular design, flexible stretchable chain segments are organically combined with rigid conjugated main chains, while maintaining the charge transport ability of the main chain, the flexibility of the side chain can effectively dissipate external stress, so that the material obtains excellent stretchability and mechanical stability. This "rigidity and flexibility" molecular structure solves the core problem of the brittleness and poor ductility of traditional conjugated polymers.
[0012] In addition, while introducing such ring-opening flexible chain segments, the functionalized hydroxyl groups at the ends can be retained, so that the polymer material has intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bonding interaction forces. Under the synergistic action of the flexible chain segments and the functionalized hydroxyl groups, the material has better mechanical properties.
[0013] This functionalization strategy based on controllable ring-opening polymerization successfully realizes the simultaneous improvement of the mechanical stretchability of the conjugated polymer while maintaining its electrical properties under the synergistic action of the side chain flexible chain segments and the terminal hydroxyl groups, providing an ideal material platform for developing a new generation of stretchable electronic devices. The establishment of this method not only expands the application boundary of ring-opening polymerization, but also provides a new way for the structural design of functional polymers. SUMMARY
[0014] The application provides a side chain controllable ring-opening polymer semiconductor material and a preparation method and application thereof. The polycaprolactone chain segment is introduced on both sides of the conjugated unit through controllable ring-opening polymerization by side chain engineering, and a stretchable soft segment is constructed to solve the problem of insufficient stretchability of the organic semiconductor material prepared by the prior art.

[0173] This example discloses the application of the side chain controllable ring-opening polymer semiconductor material shown in structural formula (I) in example 1.
[0174] Specifically, the side chain controllable ring-opening polymer semiconductor material P2 shown in structural formula (I) is prepared into 5 mg / mL chloroform solution for standby, 20 μL of the above solution is taken by a pipette and spin-coated on an OTS modified Si / SiO2 sheet with a size of 1.1*1.1 cm at a speed of 1.5 kr / min to form a film. The polymer film spin-coated on the OTS modified Si / SiO2 silicon sheet is transferred by PDMS, then the PDMS substrate is stretched to a specific strain, and then the polymer film is directly adhered to the PS modified Si / SiO2 substrate (as shown in Figure 9 ). A 30-50 nm thick gold electrode is evaporated on the stretched and transferred film by using a vacuum coating machine, and the length (L) and width (W) of the channel are 100 nm and 1000 nm respectively.
[0175] Figure 10The optical microscope images of the polymer thin film transferred from the two polymers, comparative polymer P1 and side chain controllable ring-opening polymer semiconductor material P2 shown by structural formula (I) in Example 1, to the PDMS substrate and then stretched to a certain ratio are shown in FIG. 1. Figure 10 It can be seen that the polymer thin film prepared from the side chain controllable ring-opening polymer semiconductor material P2 shown by structural formula (I) in Example 1 has good stretchability.
