The morphology plays an important role for the performance of organic, semi-conducting thin films. Understanding the self-assembly processes that occur during the drying of the photoactive films, will allow us to make progress in controlled nanomorphology tuning. We have therefore developed tools to investigate thin film formation processes using synchrotron radiation to resolve structure and structural developments [1,2]. We have now investigated an in-situ polymerization method for polythiophene to examine how much we can influence the morphology during film formation with such an approach. GIWAXS measurements, molecular dynamics simulations, and spectroscopic analysis suggest the presence of polythiophene in a novel and stable crystal structure with an enhanced intermolecular interaction [3].
