Abstract

Abstract : On page 3003, W. H. Lee, K. Cho, and co‐workers report a facile method for the preparation of inkjet‐printed blend film consisting of semiconducting polymer, poly(didodecylquaterthiophene‐alt‐didodecylbithiazole) and polystyrene. Tailoring solubility‐induced phase separation characteristics of two components leads to a unique self‐encapsulated structure which is extremely beneficial for fabricating organic transistors with environmental and electrical stabilities.
