One-dimensional (1D) organic microstructures are important for lasers, optical waveguides, and photonic circuits. Among various organic compounds, thiophene/phenylene co-oligomers (TPCOs) are promising materials as laser media in single crystal state owing to their high photoluminescence (PL) quantum efficiency, robustness, and high carrier mobilities. However, their potentials for transporting photons are still unrevealed.
We report here the characterization of lasing behaviors in 1D TPCO crystals along with their optical waveguide characteristics. As the target materials, a series of TPCOs, 2,5-bis(4’-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)thiophene (BP1T-CN) and 5,5’-bis(4’-cyano-biphenyl-4-yl)-2,2’-bithiophene (BP2T-CN) are obtained in solution phase. Apart from the lasing in the naturally formed crystal edges, the low values of attenuation coefficient estimated through the spatially-resolved PL measurements suggest that the obtained 1D TPCOs are superior materials for photonic applications.
