Used as a high-performance organic semiconductor in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and organic photovoltaics (OPVs). Its fused ring structure and extended π-conjugation enable strong intermolecular stacking and efficient charge transport, making it ideal for flexible electronics and printable semiconductors. Commonly employed in donor-acceptor type copolymers to enhance light absorption and charge separation in solar cells. Also applied in thin-film transistors due to its high carrier mobility and solution-processability, supporting low-cost, large-area electronic devices. Exhibits good thermal stability and film-forming properties, beneficial for roll-to-roll manufacturing processes.
