Organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) are promising candidates as alternatives to silicon TFTs for applications where light weight, large area and flexibility are required. OTFTs have shown potential for cost effective fabrication using solution deposition techniques under mild conditions. However, two major issues must be addressed prior to the commercialization of OTFT-based electronics: (i) low charge mobilities and (ii) insufficient air stability. This article reviews recent progress in the design and development of thiophene-based polymer semiconductors as channel materials for OTFTs. To date, both high performance p-type and n-type thiophene-based polymers with benchmark charge carrier mobility of > 0.5 cm2 V-1 s-1 have been archived, which bring printed OTFTs one step closer to commercialization.

AbstractOrganic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) are considered indispensable in applications requiring flexibility, large area, low processing temperature, and low cost. Key challenges to be addressed include developing solution-processable gate dielectric materials that form uniform films over large areas and exhibit excellent insulating properties, reducing contact resistance at interfaces between organic semiconductors and electrodes, and optimizing the patterning of organic semiconductors. High-performance pentacene-based OTFTs have been reported with polymeric gate dielectrics and indium tin oxide source/drain electrodes. Using such OTFT backplates, a 15-in. 1024 X 768 pixel full-color active-matrix liquid-crystal display (AMLCD) and a 4.5-in. 192 X64 pixel active-matrix organic light-emitting diode (AMOLED) have been fabricated.

ABSTRACTShort channel organic thin film transistors in bottom-gate, bottom contact configuration use typically gold metallization for the source and drain contacts because this metal can easily be cleaned from photoresist residuals by oxygen plasma or ultraviolet-ozone and allows also surface modification by self-assembled monolayers (e.g. thiols). Alternative low-cost bottom contact metallization for high performance short-channel organic thin film transistors are scarce because of the incompatibility of the bottom contact material with the cleaning step. In this work a new process flow, involving a temporary thin aluminum protection layer, is presented. Short channel (3.4 μm) pentacene transistors with lithographical defined and thiol modified silver source/drain bottom contacts (25 nm thick, on a 2 nm titanium adhesion layer) prepared according to this process achieved a saturation mobility of 0.316 cm2/(V.s), and this at a metal cost below 1% of the standard 30 nm thick gold metallization.
