Abstract :
Organic polymeric and molecular semiconductors functionalized with biological molecules represent a very interesting class of materials for highly selective electrical and optical sensors. Molecular design and synthetic approaches to several bio-substituted conjugated oligomers and polymers are discussed, highlighting the impact of synthetic pathways on the properties of the materials.
