The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), through its Office of Research Administration, was awarded a $800,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to research carrier delocalization and transport in micelle forming amphiphilic conjugated polymers. Specifically, UCLA researchers will synthesize water-soluble amphiphilic semiconducting polymers that self-assemble into cylindrical micelles to control polymer conformation and reduce defects without crystalline networks. Experiments will characterize micelle formation and charge carrier mobility upon doping using organic synthesis, structural studies, and spectroscopy. The comprehensive approach aims to provide strategies to further fundamental understanding of charge carrier dynamics in conjugated polymers with potential applications in organic electronics. The three-year award period runs from September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026.
