Three acceptor-donor-acceptor (A-D-A) conjugated oligomers, i.e., O1, O2 and O3, have been synthesized using diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) as an electron-acceptor unit, and naphtho[1, 2-b:5, 6-b']dithiophene (NDT), anthra[1, 2-b:5, 6-b']dithiophene (ADT) or dithieno[3, 2-b:3', 2'-b']naphtho[1, 2-b:5, 6-b']dithiophene (DTNDT) as electron-donor unit. These oligomers exhibit identical highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels, which were ca.-5.1 and-3.3 eV, respectively. Upon thermal annealing, all three oligomers formed thin films with ordered microstructures, and their organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) exhibited p-type transport behavior. The mobility was increased with an extension of the size of D-units. O3 showed the best OTFT performance with the mobility of up to 0.20 cm²·V^-1·s^-1. The film quality of O3 was improved by adding 1 wt% poly (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA). In consequence, the mobility of the O3-based devices was further enhanced to 0.30 cm²·V^-1·s^-1.
