Conjugated polymers are a promising material class for solution processed organic electronic devices. A major challenge in solution processing of multi-layer devices is the limited number of options regarding orthogonal solvents. Therefore solubility alteration of the functional layers is crucial for facilitating device fabrication. In this talk the removal of side-chains of novel naphthalene tetracarboxydiimide based semiconducting polymers by thermal treatment is analyzed by infrared transmission spectroscopy, photoelectron spectroscopy and charge transport characteristics in organic field effect transistors. Side chain residuals in the films are correlated to temperature and duration of the thermal treatment. Solvent stability is tested by washing the films after thermal treatment. Our findings show that although side chains can be removed completely after washing the thermally treated films, the charge transport strongly depends on the parameters used for this treatment.
