ABSTRACTOrganic thin film devices are of interest for a variety of forthcoming ubiquitous electronics applications. In order to build ubiquitous high-performance devices, it is necessary to fabricate crystalline thin films of various organic materials onto “ubiquitous substrates” that are dictated by applications. However, many organic thin films crystallize only on a limited selection of substrates. Unfortunately, promising organic molecules, which have a large overlap of pi-orbitals between molecules, cannot migrate freely on a substrate because of stronger cohesion between molecules than interaction between the molecule and the substrate. Therefore, enhancement of the molecule-substrate interaction, i.e. ‘molecular wettability’ should promote crystallization. We found that an ultrasmooth monolayer of pentacene (C22H14), which can be grown on many general dielectric substrates, changes the molecular wettability of a substrate for other poorly wettable organic materials. We also demonstrate that a field effect transistor (FET) using a crystalline C60 thin film on a pentacene-buffered substrate can have a mobility of 4.9 cm2/Vs, which is 5-fold higher than that of C60 FETs without the buffer. Molecular wetting-controlled substrates can thus offer a general solution to the fabrication of high-performance crystalline plastic and molecular electronics.

ABSTRACTDifferent ferroelectric thin films and their related Metal-Semiconductor-Insulator-Metal (MSIM) structures include zinc oxide (ZnO) are studied, which can be utilized in back-gated ferroelectric field-effect transistors (FETs). The most ideal zinc oxide (ZnO) thin film prepared by sol-gel method are obtained under the pyrolysis temperature of 400°C and the annealing temperature of 600°C. The asymmetric or symmetric current-voltage characteristics of the heterostructures with ZnO are exhibited depending on different ferroelectric materials in them. The curves of drain current versus gate voltage for MSIM-structure FETs are investigated, in which obvious counterclockwise loops and a drain current switching ratio up to two orders of magnitude ate observed due to the modulation effect of remnant polarization on the channel resistance. The results also indicate the positive influences of impurity atom substitution in bismuth ferrite thin film for the MSIM-structure FETs.

Abstract This study focuses on the fabrication and characterization of Cs2AgBiBr6 double perovskite thin film for field-effect transistor (FET) applications. The Cs2AgBiBr6 thin films were fabricated using a solution process technique and the observed XRD patterns demonstrate no diffraction peaks of secondary phases, which confirms the phase-pure crystalline nature. The average grain sizes of the spin-deposited film were also calculated by analysing the statistics of grain size in SEM image and was found to be around 412 (±44) nm the larger grain size was also confirmed by the XRD measurements. FETs with different channel lengths of Cs2AgBiBr6 thin films were fabricated on an electrode deposited heavily doped p-type Si substrate with a 300 nm thermally grown SiO2 dielectric under ideal conditions in air processing under ambient pressure and temperature. The Cs2AgBiBr6 FETs showed a p-type nature with a positive threshold voltage. The on current, threshold voltage and hole-mobility of the FETs decreased with increasing channel length. A high average hole mobility of 0.29 cm2s-1V-1 was obtained for the FETs with a channel length of 30 µm, and the hole mobility was reduced by an order of magnitude (0.012 cm2s-1V-1) when the channel length was doubled. The on current and hole-mobility of Cs2AgBiBr6 FETs followed a power fit, which confirmed the dominance of channel length in electrostatic gating in Cs2AgBiBr6 FETs. A very high-hole mobility observed in or FET that could be attributed to the much larger grain size of Cs2AgBiBr6 film made in this work.

AbstractBy means of insertion of thin pentacene buffer layer, we have succeeded in the fabrication of highly c-axis oriented rubrene (5,6,11,12-tetraphenylnaphthacene) thin films and their field effect transistors (FETs). In the case without pentacene buffers, only amorphous rubrene films were obtained and their FETs did not show operation. After optimization of pentacene buffer by using combinatorial thickness-gradient method, we obtained the crystalline rubrene thin films and their FETs showed p-type operation with a mobility of 0.05 cm2/V·s and an on-off ratio of 106.
