Conjugated polymers are poised to play an important role in emerging organic electronic applications because they are soft and flexible, chemically versatile, and can be solution processed [1]. This unique combination of properties enables conjugated polymers to be used in various applications, such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) [2], electrolytic capacitors [3], antistatic coatings [4], organic photovoltaics (OPVs) [5], organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) [6], and biosensors [7]. However, while the electronic properties of conjugated polymers and their blends are intimately tied to their morphology, characterizing the complex morphology of these materials is difficult.
