Abstract

Novel amic acids and amic esters can be thermally converted into corresponding arylene diimides. These amic acids and amic ester can be used as precursors to prepare semiconducting thin films that can be used in various articles including thin-film transistor devices that can be incorporated into a variety of electronic devices. In this manner, the arylene diimides need not be coated out of solvent in which they may be insoluble, but they can be generated in situ from a solvent-soluble, easily coated amic acid or amic ester.
