In this study, we reported the synthesis and characterization of a novel hyperbranched polymer (HBPs) <i>tris</i>[(4-phenyl)amino-<i>alt</i>-4,8-bis(5-(2-ethylhexyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[1,2-b;4,5-b']dithiophene] (PTPABDT) composed of benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']dithiophene (BDT) and triphenyleamine (TPA) constituent subunits by A<sub>3</sub> + B<sub>2</sub> type Stille's reaction. An estimated optical band gap of 1.69 eV with HOMO and LUMO levels of -5.29 eV and -3.60 eV, respectively, as well as a high t ...[more]
