Side chains play a critical role in tuning intermolecular interaction and charge transport in organic semiconductors.Here,we have systematically investigated the impact of branching positions of the alkyl side chains on the molecular packing and electron transport properties of a series of bay-linked dimeric perylenediimide (PDI) derivatives by atomistic molecular dynamics simulations in combination with charge transfer rate theory and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations.The results show that despite of different branching positions of the alkyl chains,π-π stacking is effectively inhibited for all the dimeric PDI derivatives.As the branching position moves away from the PDI backbone,the appearance of the alkyl atoms around the PDI backbone will first decrease and then increase.Correspondingly,the short contacts between the PDI moieties are first enhanced and then reduced.In particular,when the branching position is at the third carbon atom,the intermolecular connectivity becomes the most effective and the electron mobility is significantly increased by 2 times.
