Making silver a stronger n-dopant than cesium via in situ coordination reaction for organic electronics

Controlled doping of organic semiconductors is required to enhance charge injection in organic electronics, but the lack of suitable n-dopants with small ionization energy remains elusive. Here, the authors report air-stable metals that act as strong n-dopants in molecules with chelating ligands.
