Abstract

Abstract : Blue colorant indigo, occurring in Indigofera tinctoria plant, attracts much attention as ambipolar semiconductor designed by nature. In article number1601033, Pavel A. Troshin and co‐workers present a nature‐inspired material dibenzoindigo, which shows remarkably improved electrical performance compared to parent indigo and also excellent ambient and photostability. Biological assays reveal that dibenzoindigo positively influences proliferation of human cells, which paves a way towards an extensive application of this material in biocompatible electronics.
