Used primarily in organic electronics, this compound serves as a semiconductor material in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) due to its extended conjugated system and good charge carrier mobility. The presence of long decyl side chains enhances solubility in organic solvents, facilitating solution-processing techniques like spin-coating or inkjet printing for thin-film fabrication. Its structural stability and tunable electronic properties make it suitable for flexible electronics, sensors, and as an active layer in printable electronic devices. Additionally, it finds use in research settings for developing organic photovoltaics and thin-film transistors where processability and performance are critical.
