dc.description.abstractSupercritical fluids, exhibiting a combination of liquid-like solvation power and gas-like diffusivity, are a relatively unexplored medium for processing and crystallization of oligomer and polymeric semiconductors whose optoelectronic properties critically depend on the microstructure. Here we report oligomer crystallization from the polymer organic semiconductor, poly[2,5-bis(3-dodecylthiophen-2-yl)thieno[3,2-b]thiophene] (PBTTT) in supercritical hexane, yielding needle-like single crystals up to several microns in length. We characterize the crystals' photophysical properties by time- and polarization-resolved photoluminescence (TPRPL) spectroscopy. These techniques reveal two-dimensional interchromophore coupling facilitated by the high degree of pi-stacking order within the crystal. Furthermore, the crystals obtained from supercritical fluid were found to be similar photophysically as the crystallites found in solution-cast thin films and distinct from solution-grown crystals that exhibited spectroscopic signatures indicative of different packing geometries.en_US
