High Charge Carrier Mobility in Porphyrin Nanoribbons
Abstract Polydisperse edge‐fused nickel(II) porphyrin nanoribbons have been synthesized by Yamamoto coupling followed by gold(III)‐mediated fusion, with average degrees of polymerization of up to 37 repeat units (length 31 nm). Time‐resolved optical‐pump terahertz spectroscopy measurements indicate that photo‐generated charge carriers have dc mobilities of up to 205 cm 2 V −1 s −1 in these nanoribbons, exceeding the values previously reported for most other types of nanoribbon or π‐conjugated polymer.
