Advantageous 3D Ordering of π-Conjugated Systems: A New Approach Towards Efficient Charge Transport in any Direction

A new organic semiconductor based on a benzobisthiazole core has been studied as a hole transport material in field effect transistors; remarkably, the material self‐assembles in the solid state to give intermolecular short contacts in all three dimensions.
