Abstract

The dielectric properties of three pairs of organic semiconductors that contain increasing numbers of cyclopentadithiophene-co-benzothiadiazole moieties (monomer, dimer and polymer) were studied and compared. The materials in each pair differed in the nature of the ‘solubilizing groups’, which are either alkyl- or glycol-based. At low frequencies (
