Ambipolar polymer semiconductors have wide applications in electronic devices such as organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), logic circuits, and organic light-emitting transistors (OLETs). Although some high-performance ambipolar polymers have been developed, their optoelectronic devices are generally processed from toxic chlorinated solvents. To achieve the commercial applications of organic electronic devices, the polymers should be processed from nonchlorinated solvents. However, most of semiconducting polymers are hardly soluble in nonchlorinated solvents.
