title: A fluorenone based low band gap solution processable copolymer for air stable and high mobility organic field effect transistors.
abstract: A fluorenone based alternating copolymer () with a furan based fused aromatic moiety has been designed and synthesized.  exhibits a small band gap with a lower HOMO value. Testing this polymer semiconductor as the active layer in organic thin-film transistors results in hole mobilities as high as 0.15 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) in air.
