AB  - A polythiophene derivative with the simplest conjugated side chain, 
      poly(3-hexy-1-enylthiophene) (P3HET), was synthesized by Stille self-coupling 
      reaction. A comparative study of the newly synthesized polymer with 
      poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT), one of the most widely investigated optoelectronic 
      materials, is presented. The effect of double bond (C=C) on the side chain toward 
      thermal stability and optical and electronic properties was fully characterized 
      by TGA, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, and 
      cyclic voltammetry. The hole mobility of P3HET determined by the 
      space-charge-limited current (SCLC) model is 6.7 x 10(-3) cm(2)/V s, which is 
      comparable to P3HT with similar molecular weight and regularity and 1 order of 
      magnitude higher than most conjugated-side-chain polythiophene derivatives. 
      Polymer solar cells (PSCs) and field effect transistors (FETs) were fabricated 
      respectively to exploit its potential applications in optoelectronic devices.
