Synthesis-in-place of highly-conjugated oligothiophene micropatterns via photo-activated Ullmann coupling on copper surface.
In contrast to the traditional thermally-activated Ullmann coupling, a photo-activated Ullmann coupling for facile synthesis of oligothiophene and polythiophene films and micropatterns is reported.
