3-Hexylthiophene serves as a key monomer for synthesizing regioregular P3HT, enabling high hole mobility (0.1 cm²/V·s) in organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). Its extended π-conjugation system makes it ideal for bulk heterojunction solar cells when blended with PCBM derivatives. The compound’s balanced solubility and processability support layer-by-layer fabrication of flexible electronic devices. Researchers also utilize it as a model system for studying charge transport mechanisms in conjugated polymers.
