Electrical doping of organic semiconductors is widely applied to fabricate high performance organic electronic devices. First, this contribution studies the electric-field-induced drift of molecular dopants for different host-dopant combinations and the influence of structural order on this drift [1]. Second, we present a study that focuses on the spatial position of dopant molecules in P3HT crystallites, together with a DFT-based approach that can explain the observed changes in π-π lattice spacing without the need for a dopant intercalation. The drift study includes Poly(3-hexylthiophene-2,5-diyl) (P3HT) doped with 2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ), as well as larger dopant molecules and different host materials. We find that the dynamic drift-process can be utilized to deliberately create highly doped and almost undoped regions within one thin film, resulting in a spatially altered conductivity. The applicability is shown on proof-of-principle memristive devices that are based on this effect.
