Design of High‐Mobility Diketopyrrolopyrrole‐Based π‐Conjugated Copolymers for Organic Thin‐Film Transistors

Since the report of the first diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)‐based polymer semiconductor, such polymers have received considerable attention as a promising candidate for high‐performance polymer semiconductors in organic thin‐film transistors (OTFTs). This Progress Report summarizes the advances in the molecular design of high‐mobility DPP‐based polymers reported in the last few years, especially focusing on the molecular design of these polymers in respect of tuning the backbone and side chains, and discussing the influences of structural modification of the backbone and side chains on the properties and device performance of corresponding DPP‐based polymers. This provides insights for the development of new and high‐mobility polymer semiconductors.
