ABSTRACTIn this report, we describe our initial synthesis and characterization of mono-functional and bi-functional dibromoalkyl oligothiophenes to achieve amphiphilicity and telechelic functionality. Oligothiophenes are an important class of organic materials for opto-electronic devices and display applications. We have mono-functionalized oligothiophenes by the synthesis of a quinquethiophene bromoalkyl derivative. A bi-functional sexithiophene was derived primarily by the symmetrical coupling of terthiophene derivatives. Both were synthesized using Grignard coupling and lithiation reaction methodologies. UV-Vis, IR, NMR, MALDI-TOF-MS, and DSC confirmed the structure and physical properties of the oligomers. In addition, we have also synthesized an amphiphilic diamine derivative from the reaction of hexamethylenediamine with a bromoalkyl terthiophene derivative. Using photoluminescence, the photophysical properties of the oligomers were found to be that of typical oligothiophenes. Processing as ultrathin films for devices is currently being investigated.

Superlattice Structure

ABSTRACTPredicted and observed reductions in thermal conductivity of materials with superlattice structure have prompted interesting research into the possibility of using these materials as higher efficiency thermoelectrics. Synthesis of superlattice materials is challenging however, as the structure itself is generally not very stable at high temperatures as it is prone to interdiffusion. Presented here is the successful synthesis and characterization of a superlattice composed of two materials with the skutterudite structure, IrSb3 and CoSb3.

A block copolymer was developed consisting of poly(propylene fumarate) (PPF) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) blocks. The former component allows the copolymer to be crosslinked, while the latter component allows the physical properties to be controlled. The compositions and segmental lengths of the two components were varied, and the copolymer was subsequently characterized.
