Controlling Poly(3-hexylthiophene) Crystal Dimension: Nanowhiskers and Nanoribbons
Open accessAbstract
A study was conducted to investigate crystallization of regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) by changing the polymer molecular weight (M n), crystallization temperature, and polymer concentration. It was observed that polymer chains changed from extending to folding in nanowhiskers when the Mn was above a critical value. The fold length was controlled by changing the crystallization temperature. These observations provided the first evidence of P3HT chain folding when it crystallized from solutions. It was also observed that one dimensional (ID) nanowhiskers composed of extended P3HT chains were grown into highly ordered two-dimensional (2D) nanoribbons from more concentrated P3HT solutions, generating a new class of large P3HT crystals. The increased concentration of folded-chain and extended-chain P3HT samples resulted in the formation of gels.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
