Widely used in organic electronics, this compound serves as a key semiconductor material in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). Its extended alkyl side chains enhance solubility and promote strong intermolecular stacking, leading to improved charge carrier mobility. It is particularly valued in solution-processed thin-film transistors for flexible electronics and low-cost sensor devices. Due to its stability and efficient π-π interactions, it also finds use in organic photovoltaics and as a building block in conjugated polymers for optoelectronic applications.
