To date, high-performance organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) are all based on polythiophene systems. Donor-acceptor (D-A) conjugated polymers are expected to be promising materials for OECTs owing to their high mobility and comparatively low crystallinity (good for ion diffusion). However, the OECT performance of D-A polymers lags far behind that of the polythiophenes. Here we synergistically engineered the backbone, side chain of a series of diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP)-based D-A polymers and found that redox potential, molecular weight, solution processability, and film microstructures are essential to their performance. Among the polymers, P(bgDPP-MeOT2) exhibited a figure-of-merit (μC*) of 225 F cm<sup>–1</sup> V<sup>–1</sup> s<sup>–1</sup>, <a>over one order of magnitude higher than previously reported D-A polymers. Besides, the DPP polymers exhibited high hole mobility over 2 cm<sup>2</sup> V</a><sup>−1</sup> s<sup>−1</sup>, significantly higher than all D-A polymers employed in OECTs, leading to fast response OECTs with a record low turn-off response time of 30 μs. <a>The polymer also exhibited better stability than polythiophene systems with current retention of 98.8% over 700 electrochemical switching cycles.</a> This work provides a systematic solution to unleash the high-performance and fast-response nature of D-A polymers in OECTs.

Conducting polymers comprises a new class of materials achieving electrical conductivities which rival those of the best metals. The parent compounds (conjugated polymers) are quasi-one-dimensional semiconductors. These polymers can be doped by electron acceptors or electron donors. The prototype of these materials is polyacetylene (PA). There are various other conjugated polymers such as polyparaphenylene, polyphenylenevinylene, polypoyrrole or polythiophene. The doped systems, i.e. the conducting polymers, have intersting potential technological applications such as replacement of conventional metals in electronic shielding and antistatic equipment, rechargable batteries, and flexible light emitting diodes.Although these systems have been investigated almost 20 years, the electronic structure of the doped metallic systems is not clear and even the reason for the gap in undoped semiconducting systems is under discussion.
