Abstract

Two flavors of π: Semiconducting π-conjugated polymers may open new opportunities for the fabrication of ecofriendly, inexpensive optoelectronic devices. These materials can be prepared by direct arylation polycondensation, a straightforward approach that generates little waste and no toxic by-products.
