Used in organic electronics as a semiconductor material in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) due to its strong π-conjugated structure and good charge carrier mobility. It is also employed in the development of organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs) and light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) for its ability to absorb visible light and emit fluorescence efficiently. Its pyridine and thiophene moieties enhance molecular stacking and stability, making it suitable for thin-film device applications.
