The core group used in the abstract and the uncaptioned figure on page 8511 for the molecule NDT(TDPP)₂ displays a 4,9-bis((2-ethylhexyl)oxy)naphtho[2,3-b:6,7-b′]dithiophene moiety. However, the correct structure should be the 5,10-bis((2-ethylhexyl)oxy)naphtho[2,3-b:6,7-b′]dithiophene moiety, as shown below. We thank Dr Chinna D. Bathula for bringing this to our attention.

In addition, on page 8512, the electron affinity (EA) values for compounds 1 and 2 are written as -3.60 and -3.39 eV, respectively. However, these values should be positive 3.60 and 3.39 eV. The authors apologize for any confusion that these errors may have caused.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for this error and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
