The present invention relates to an organic semiconductor material.
In recent years, organic thin film transistors, organic thin film solar cells, and the like utilizing organic semiconductor materials have been energetically researched and developed. In the case of using organic semiconductor materials, thin-film-shaped organic semiconductor layers can be produced by a simple method with a wet process such as a printing method or a spin coating method. Therefore, there are advantages that such organic semiconductor materials have low production costs in comparison with inorganic semiconductor materials and are able to provide semiconductor elements that are thin and have excellent flexibility. Therefore, various organic semiconductor materials have been energetically researched and developed.
For example, Non Patent Literatures 1 to 4 disclose organic semiconductor materials comprising benzothiadiazole. Further, Non Patent Literature 5 discloses an organic semiconductor material comprising benzothiadiazole or naphthobisthiadiazole.

The organic semiconductor materials of Non Patent Literatures 1 and 2 have problems that the organic semiconductor materials do not have very high carrier mobilities in organic thin film transistors and are on unpractical levels.
The organic semiconductor materials of Non Patent Literatures 2 to 4 have problems that the organic semiconductor materials do not have very high photoelectric conversion efficiencies and are difficult to apply to organic thin film solar cells.
Further, in the organic semiconductor material of Non Patent Literature 5, a thiophene ring is bound to a polymer main chain in a perpendicular direction, an alkyl group that is a soluble group is substituted through the thiophene ring, and therefore the structural degrees of freedom of the side chains are high. Therefore, when the film of the organic semiconductor material is produced to form an organic semiconductor layer, the crystallinity of the material thin film is not high. When the crystallinity of the thin film is low, a carrier mobility is not high, and it is therefore difficult to use the organic semiconductor material as a material for a thin film transistor.
The present invention was accomplished with respect to the above matters, and an objective of the present invention is to provide an organic semiconductor material with good crystallinity and an excellent carrier mobility.
An organic semiconductor material according to a first aspect of the present invention comprises a backbone represented by formula 1:
(in formula 1, R1 is hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, and an alkoxycarbonyl group, m is an integer of 1 or more, Ar is a monocyclic or condensed polycyclic heteroaromatic ring optionally comprising a substituent, and when a plurality of heteroaromatic rings are linked, the same or different heteroaromatic rings are optionally linked).
The organic semiconductor material is preferably a polymer compound comprising the backbone as a repeating unit.
The monocyclic heteroaromatic ring is preferably a thiophene ring or a selenophene ring.
The condensed polycyclic heteroaromatic ring is preferably represented by any of formula 11 to formula 16:
(in formula 11 to formula 16, X represents an oxygen, sulfur, or selenium atom; in formula 11 and formula 12, R2 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, or an aromatic ring optionally comprising a substituent; and in formula 16, R3 represents an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group).
An organic semiconductor material according to a second aspect of the present invention is represented by any of formula 21 to formula 24:
(in formula 21 to formula 24, R1 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group, and n represents a positive real number; in formula 21, R4 and R5 represent hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group, and m represents an integer of 1 or more; in formula 23, R3 represents an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group; and in formula 24, R2 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, or an aromatic ring optionally comprising a substituent).
The organic semiconductor material according to the present invention comprises a backbone in which a heteroaromatic ring is bound to naphthobisthiadiazole. In addition, as the substituent of the heteroaromatic ring, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group is directly bound to the heteroaromatic ring. The organic semiconductor material according to the present invention exhibits good crystallinity and has an excellent carrier mobility since the substituent is directly bound to a conjugated main chain.

An organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment comprises a backbone represented by formula 1.
In the above formula 1, R1 is hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group. Further, m represents an integer of 1 or more. Further, Ar is a monocyclic or condensed polycyclic heteroaromatic ring optionally comprising a substituent. When a plurality of heteroaromatic rings are linked, the same or different heteroaromatic rings are optionally linked.
The organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment comprises a naphthobisthiadiazole backbone, and naphthobisthiadiazole is an electron-deficient (electron-accepting) heteroaromatic condensed ring. When the units other than the naphthobisthiadiazole backbone are electron-donating (donating) units, in the organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment, polarization occurs in the molecule, the improvement of an intermolecular interaction and the longer wavelength of absorbed light can be expected, and the organic semiconductor material can be utilized as a p-type organic semiconductor material for an organic transistor, an organic thin film solar cell, or the like. In contrast, when the units other than the naphthobisthiadiazole backbone are electron-accepting (accepting) units, the organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment can be utilized as an n-type organic semiconductor material.
The above organic semiconductor material may be a low-molecular-weight compound and is preferably a polymer compound comprising formula 1 as a repeating unit.
When R1 is hydrogen in formula 1, the heteroaromatic ring is provided with an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group as a substituent. In such a case, the substituent is directly linked to a conjugated main chain.
Since the above substituent is directly linked to the conjugated main chain of the organic semiconductor material, the organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment has a structure with a low structural degree of freedom and high orientation. In other words, the crystallinity of an organic semiconductor layer obtained by producing a film using the organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment becomes good. Further, as described in later examples, a it-it stacking distance is around 3.5 Å, which is very short, in the organic semiconductor layer obtained by producing the film of the organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment. The organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment has such characteristics that hopping of holes or electrons easily occurs and a carrier mobility is excellent because of having good crystallinity and a short it-it stacking distance as described above. In addition, the number of substituents in formula 1 (in one unit) is preferably one or more and four or less. The reason thereof is that the too large number of substituents results in deterioration of packing in the case of obtaining an organic semiconductor device due to the effect of the configuration of the substituents.
Examples of the above-mentioned monocyclic heteroaromatic ring include a thiophene ring or a selenophene ring.
Further, the condensed polycyclic heteroaromatic ring is preferably a backbone represented by formula 11 to formula 16 below. In formula 11 to formula 16, X represents an oxygen, sulfur, or selenium atom. In formula 11 and formula 12, R2 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, or an aromatic ring optionally comprising a substituent. In formula 16, R3 represents an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group.
Specific examples of the organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment include structures represented by formula 21 to formula 24.
In formula 21 to formula 24, R1 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group, and n represents a positive real number. In formula 21, m represents an integer of 1 or more, and R4 and R5 represent hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group. In formula 23, R3 represents an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group. In formula 24, R2 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, or an aromatic ring optionally comprising a substituent.
The organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment is excellent in solubility in an organic solvent because of comprising an alkyl group, an alkylcarbonyl group, an alkoxy group, or an alkoxycarbonyl group as a substituent as mentioned above. Particularly in the case of forming an organic semiconductor layer by a wet process when a semiconductor element for an organic transistor, an organic thin film solar cell, or the like is produced using the organic semiconductor material that is a polymer compound, the organic semiconductor material is very effective.
In the wet process, first, the organic semiconductor material is dissolved in an organic solvent. In addition, the solution is used to form an organic semiconductor layer on a substrate or the like by a spin coating method or the like. Since the organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment exhibits excellent solubility in an organic solvent, the organic semiconductor layer with a uniform thickness can be easily formed. Further, since the organic semiconductor material is in the form of being generally homogeneously dispersed in the solution, the homogeneous organic semiconductor layer is formed. Furthermore, in the organic semiconductor material in which a five-membered ring such as a thiophene ring is bound to naphthobisthiadiazole, steric hindrance is reduced in comparison with a benzene ring or the like, and molecular arrangement with higher orientation is therefore formed. Accordingly, the organic thin film solar cell and the organic thin film transistor that are obtained using the organic semiconductor material according to the present embodiment exhibit good photoelectric conversion efficiency and charge mobility.
