For brevity, we use acronyms of these materials throughout the work: 4,8-bis( 1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)-4H,8H-benzo[1,2-c:4,5-c′]bis[1,2,5]- thiadiazole (BTQBT); 4,8-bis(1,3-dithiol-2-ylidene)-4H,8H-[1,2, 5]selenadiazolo[3,4-f]-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole (TSQBT); 4,8-bis(1,3-diselenol-2- ylidene)-4H,8H-benzo[1,2-c:4,5-c′]bis[1,2,5]thiadiazole (BTQBS); tetramethyl-BTQBT (TMBTQBT).
