DOI: 10.1002/adma.202311541
Abstract: 2D conjugated polymers (2DCPs) possess extended in‐plane π‐conjugated lattice and out‐of‐plane π–π stacking, which results in enhanced electronic performance and potentially unique band structures. These properties, along with predesignability, well‐defined channels, easy postmodification, and order… read more here.
