Outline of Final Research Achievements

Incorporation of tri-coordinate boron atoms into a graphene skeleton produces various fascinating properties and functions. Aiming at the precise understanding the inherent properties of the boron-doped graphenes, we have synthesized various types of boron-containing nanographene materials as the model systems and studied their structures, properties, and functions. We have explored photoreactivity of the boron-containing pi-systems and their chemisorption properties leading to sensory applications. We have also achieved the solution-processed preparation of their thin films for organic field-effect transistors (FETs). A highly stabilized organic pi radical has been also synthesized, which showed amibiopolar carrier-transporting properties in a single crystal FET.
