Used in organic electronics as a semiconductor material due to its rigid, planar structure and extended π-conjugation. It serves as a key building block in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and has been explored in organic photovoltaics (OPVs) for improving charge carrier mobility. Its stability and strong intermolecular stacking enhance device performance. Also investigated in fluorescent sensors and optoelectronic devices owing to its luminescent properties.
