摘要
Charge transport through a semiconducting nanoparticle assembly is demonstrated. The hole mobility of low and high molecular weight and regioreglular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) nanoparticles is on the order of 2 × 10-4 to 5 × 10-4 cm2 V -1 s-1, which is comparable to drop-cast thin films of pristine P3HT. Various methods are employed to understand the nature and importance of the nanoparticle packing. © 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
