Solid-State Donor–Acceptor Coaxial Heterojunction Nanowires via Living Crystallization-Driven Self-Assembly
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The creation of organic heterojunctions from conjugated polymers on the nanoscale has attracted recent attention as a consequence of their considerable potential in optoelectronic devices. Herein, we report proof-of-concept results on a versatile synthetic strategy to access various linearly segmented nanowire heterojunctions with controlled dimensions using the seeded growth “living crystallization-driven self-assembly” method followed by a secondary crystallization step. Specifically, we describe the creation of coaxial and also segmented coaxial B–A–B and A–B–A nanowires with a solvophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) corona, an inner crystalline core that consists of poly(di-n-hexylfluorene) (PDHF), which functions as a donor, and an outer crystalline core of poly(3-(2′-ethylhexyl)thiophene) (P3EHT), which acts as an acceptor. The latter is present either along the entire nanowire or solely in the central or terminal segments. These assemblies were created by seeded growth of two types of π-conjugated polymeric building blocks, the triblock copolymer PDHF-b-P3EHT-b-PEG and the diblock copolymer PDHF-b-PEG, by using fiber-like seeds derived from either material. The nanowires with both solid-state donor and acceptor blocks exhibit Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) from the PDHF inner core to the P3EHT outer core which was characterized by fluorescence spectroscopy and laser confocal scanning fluorescence microscopy (LCSM). The FRET in the solid-state coaxial heterojunctions with an inner PDHF core and an outer P3EHT core was enhanced relative to the directly analogous system in which the P3EHT block was solvated.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
