n-type organic semiconductors exhibiting two-dimensional isotropic charge transport are rarely reported. Here the authors show that using bulky substituents, BQQDI demonstrates near-isotropic charge transport, resilience to dynamic disorder, as well as high electron mobility both in single- and polycrystalline thin-film transistors.
