General description

N,N′-Bis(3-pentyl)perylene-3,4,9,10-bis(dicarboximide) (EP-PDI) is a perylenediimide derivative that has a planar backbone and π-conjugation. It is a thermally stable polymer with luminescence and photochemical properties. It acts as a pigment and has charge mobility of 1 cm2V-1s-1 which can be used in a variety of energy and chemical sensing based applications.

Application

EP-PDI (acceptor) blended with P3HT (donor) and PCBM (donor) can be used in the fabrication of organic photovoltaic devices and organic solar cells. It forms a mixture with tetrahydrofuran (THF) that shows high intensity fluorescence which can be used as a sensor for the detection of nitroaromatic compounds.
High electron transporting character; Perylenebis(dicarboximide)s (PDIs) can be used as air-stable n-type semiconductor materials for organic fieldeffect transistors (OFETs);
Perylene bisimide dye used for organic photovoltaics (OPVs). A PCE of 1.75% was demonstrated with the solvent vapor annealed films; representing the best among the solar cells based on the single molecule materials.

Developmental psychopathologists have long posited a reciprocal relation between parenting behaviors and the development of child anxiety symptoms. Yet, little empirical research has utilized a longitudinal design that would allow exploration of this bi-directional influence. The present study examined the
