Organic semiconductors have received tremendous attention in recent years because they offer opportunities for low-cost device fabrication for applications ranging from energy to health care to security. However, their successful commercialization relies on the design and development of sustainable, robust and reliable materials chemistries and processes.  Molecular design coupled with solution behavior play a significant role in determining a materials thin-film electronic performance. Molecular structure is the first consideration in the search for high performance hole and electron transport semiconducting polymers. Second, the polymers must be amenable to self-assemble into nano- through meso-scale structures that enable charge transport. This presentation will explore the relationships between molecular structure and solution processing protocols that provide for the development of key structure-process-property relationships for polymer semiconductors that will enable the realization of robust and reproducible semiconducting solutions for flexible electronics applications.<br/>
