Widely used in organic electronics, this compound serves as a key semiconductor material in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). Its extended conjugated system and alkyl side chains enhance charge carrier mobility and improve solubility, making it suitable for solution-processed thin-film devices. It is also employed in organic photovoltaics (OPVs) as a donor material due to its strong light absorption and favorable energy levels for charge separation. Additionally, its stability and tunable electronic properties make it a candidate for use in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and sensors.
