Theoretical investigation of charge transport properties of X-type carbon-based organic semiconductor molecules
摘要
In this study, quantum chemical calculations were performed using the 6–31 + G(d,p) basis set and long-range-corrected functionals (CAM-B3LYP and WB97XD) to optimise the structures and evaluate the charge transfer rates of five X-type carbon-based molecules. These molecules are hexa-peri-hexabenzo[a, d, g, j, m, p]coronene-based systems with azulene rings at the four end corners, with the edge carbon atoms replaced by B–N, B–O, B–S, or C = O groups. The results indicate that all five X-type molecules are quasi-planar, conjugated large π-systems, classifying them as organic semiconductors. The carrier mobility (μ) values calculated using WB97XD are relatively higher, although the trends remain consistent across methods. The B–N hybridised molecule (
