The development of air-stable unipolar n-type semiconductors with good solubility in organic solvents at room temperature remains a critical issue in the field of organic electronics. Moreover, most of the existing semiconducting materials exhibit LUMO energy levels higher than &#x2212;4.0 eV, making electron transport sensitive to both moisture and oxygen. Bis(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)benzodifurandione dicyanide or derivatives thereof are disclosed herein. More specifically, bis(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)benzodifurandione dicyanide or derivatives thereof for use in organic electronics are disclosed. A process for the preparation of bis(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)benzodifurandione dicyanide and derivatives is also disclosed. The bis(2-oxoindolin-3-ylidene)benzodifurandione dicyanide or derivatives thereof are characterized by high electron mobilities and are suitable for use as n-type semiconductors in organic electronics.

Methods are provided for fabricating photodetector arrays using passive matrix addressing technology. The photodetector arrays use a pair of switching diode and photo diode to overcome crosstalk issues within the passive matrix. The switching diode and the photo diode of each pixel may be connected using a cathode-to-cathode connection, or an anode-to-anode connection. The photodetector arrays are fabricated by assembling on a first substrate, an array of photodetector pixels comprising a switching diode and a photo diode, providing conductive lines for each row of the array and conductive lines for each column of the array, and attaching a second substrate to the first substrate. The photodetector array may also be fabricated by assembling on a first substrate an array of switching diodes, and assembling on a second substrate an array of photo diodes, and bonding the first and second substrates together.
