Used in organic semiconductors and optoelectronic devices due to its extended aromatic structure and electron-rich framework. Serves as a building block in the synthesis of conjugated polymers for organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The bromine atoms allow for further functionalization via cross-coupling reactions, enabling precise tuning of electronic properties. Also explored in photovoltaic materials for organic solar cells owing to its ability to absorb light in the visible range and facilitate charge transport. Its rigid planar structure promotes strong π-π stacking, enhancing device performance.
