Definitions

  • the invention relates to new reactive mesogenic compounds with charge transport properties comprising at least two thiophene groups.
  • the invention further relates to their use as semiconductors or charge transport materials, in optical, electro-optical or electronic devices like for example liquid crystal displays, optical films, organic field effect transistors (FET or OFET) for thin film transistor liquid crystal displays and integrated circuit devices such as RFID tags, electroluminescent devices in flat panel displays, and in photovoltaic and sensor devices.
  • the invention further relates to a field effect transistor, light emitting device or ID tag comprising the reactive mesogenic charge transport compounds.
  • Organic materials have recently shown promise as the active layer in organic based thin film transistors and organic field effect transistors [see H. E. Katz, Z. Bao and S. L. Gilat, Ace. Chem. Res., 2001 , 34, 5, 359]. Such devices have potential applications in smart cards, security tags and the switching element in flat panel displays. Organic materials are envisaged to have substantial cost advantages over their silicon analogues if they can be deposited from solution, as this enables a fast, large-area fabrication route.
  • the performance of the device is principally based upon the charge carrier mobility of the semi-conducting material and the current on/off ratio, so the ideal semiconductor should have a low conductivity in the off state, combined with a high charge carrier mobility (> 1 x 10 "3 cm 2 V “1 s "1 ).
  • the semi-conducting material is relatively stable to oxidation i.e. it has a high ionisation potential, as oxidation leads to reduced device performance.
  • a known compound which has been shown to be an effective p-type semiconductor for OFETs is pentacene [see S. F. Nelson, Y. Y. Lin, D. J. Gundlach and T. N. Jackson, Appl. Phys.
  • reactive mesogenic compounds consist of a central mesogenic core comprising two or more thiophene rings, and optionally one or more phenylene rings that form a conjugated system together with the thiophene rings, said mesogenic core being linked, optionally via a spacer group, to one or more reactive groups.
  • the compounds can induce or enhance liquid crystal phases or are liquid crystalline themselves. They can be oriented in their mesophase and the polymerisable group can be polymerised or crosslinked in situ to form polymer films with a high degree of order, thus yielding improved semiconductor materials with high stability and high charge carrier mobility.
  • a further aspect of the invention relates to liquid crystal polymers, in particular liquid crystal side chain polymers obtained from the reactive mesogenic compounds according to the present invention, which are then further processed e.g. from solution as thin layers for use in semiconductor devices.
  • 'liquid crystal or mesogenic material' or 'liquid crystal or mesogenic compound' should denote materials or compounds comprising one or more rod-shaped, board-shaped or disk-shaped mesogenic groups, i.e. groups with the ability to induce liquid crystal phase behaviour.
  • Liquid crystal compounds with rod-shaped or board- shaped groups are also known in the art as 'calamitic' liquid crystals.
  • Liquid crystal compounds with a disk-shaped group are also known in the art as 'discotic' liquid crystals.
  • the compounds or materials comprising mesogenic groups do not necessarily have to exhibit a liquid crystal phase themselves. It is also possible that they show liquid crystal phase behaviour only in mixtures with other compounds, or when the mesogenic compounds or materials, or the mixtures thereof, are polymerised.
  • 'reactive group 1 or 'reactive compound' means compounds or groups that are capable of participating in a polymerisation reaction, like radicalic or ionic polymerisation from unsaturated functionality, or a polyaddition or polycondensation reaction, as well as compounds or groups that are capable of being grafted for example by a condensation or addition reaction to a reactive polymer backbone in a polymeranaloguous reaction.

  • the invention also relates to the use of the compounds of formula I as semiconductors or charge transport materials, in particular in optical, electro-optical or electronic devices, like for example in field effect transistors as components of integrated circuitry, as thin film transistors in flat panel display applications or RFID tags, or in semi- conducting components for organic light emitting diode (OLED) applications such as electroluminescent displays or backlights of flat panel displays, for photovoltaic or sensor devices, or as light- modulating components for liquid crystal displays, optical films or other optical or electrooptical devices.
  • OLED organic light emitting diode
  • the invention also relates to a field effect transistor, for example as a component of integrated circuitry, as a thin film transistor in flat panel display applications, or in an RFID tag, comprising one or more compounds according to the present invention.

  • a semi-conducting component for example in OLED applications like electroluminescent displays or backlights of flat panel displays, in photovoltaic or sensor devices, comprising one or more according to the present invention.
  • the inventive reactive mesogenic compounds are useful as charge transport semiconductors, in that they have.high carrier mobilities.
  • the introduction of side groups to the mesogenic core improves their solubility and therefore their solution processability.
  • the mesogenic core comprises one or more thiophene groups. They are therefore particularly useful as semiconductors or charge transport materials, as they can be processed while in the highly ordered mesophase morphology, and readily aligned by conventional techniques in a preferred direction. Both smectic and nematic mesophase ordering allows close packing of molecular pi-electron systems, which maximises intermolecular charge transfer which occurs through a hopping mechanism between adjacent molecules.
  • This ordered, and oriented microstructure can be permanently "frozen-in” by polymerising the mesogens, which can also create a structure with long range order, or "monodomain". Formation of a monodomain also maximises charge transfer by eliminating charge trap sites at grain boundaries, while the polymerisation also improves the mechanical properties of the film. Further, by cross-linking the mesogens, a highly stable structure results, which has an additional advantage of being impervious to subsequent processing solvents during device fabrication, thus allowing a wider range of solvents to be used in deposition of the next layer of the device by solution techniques. In addition, it is often observed that this cross-linking further densities the film, leading to smaller intermolecular distances and improved charge transport.
  • another aspect of the invention relates to a reactive liquid crystal mixture comprising one or more reactive mesogenic compounds of the present invention, and optionally comprising one or more further reactive compounds, which are optionally also mesogenic or liquid crystalline.
  • reactive mesogenic compounds of the present invention or mixtures comprising one or more reactive mesogenic compounds of the present invention, that exhibit a liquid crystal phase, especially a nematic and/or smectic liquid crystal phase.

Particularly preferred are SCLCPs obtained from one or more reactive mesogenic compounds or mixtures comprising them as described above.

  • the semiconducting component in which the semiconducting component is located as a pendant group, separated from a flexible backbone by an aliphatic spacer group, offer the possibility to obtain a highly ordered lamellar like morphology.
  • This structure consists of closely packed conjugated aromatic mesogens, in which very close (typically ⁇ 4 A) pi-pi stacking can occur. This stacking allows intermolecular charge transport to occur more easily, leading to high charge carrier mobilities.
  • SCLCPs are advantageous for specific applications as they can be readily synthesized before processing and then e.g. be processed from solution in ah organic solvent. If SCLCPs are used in solutions, they can orient spontaneously when coated onto an appropriate surface and when at their mesophase temperature, which can result in large area, highly ordered domains.
  • the invention also relates to the use of reactive mesogenic compounds of the present invention, or liquid crystal mixtures or polymers obtained thereof, as light-modulating component in liquid crystal displays, which may for example be switchable between two different states by an electric field, for components of liquid crystal displays, in particular optical retardation or compensation films, alignment layers or polarisers, or in other optical or electrooptical devices.
