ABSTRACTWe report the fabrication and characterization of the bottom contact organic thin film transistors and inverter based on a heterostructure of C60 on pentacene. The transistor shows ambipolar transport characteristics with high electron and hole mobilities of 0.23 cm2V−1s−1 and 0.14 cm2V−1s−1, respectively. After exposure to air, the n-channel in C60 is completely degraded whereas the p-channel in pentacene keeps working. Both the n-channel and the p-channel are stable in N2 atmosphere. The inverter exhibits typical transfer characteristics, which are interpreted by the distribution of the accumulated electrons and holes depending on the bias conditions. These results suggest a potential way to fabricate organic complementary circuits with a single organic heterostructure device.

Organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) based on dioctylbenzothienobenzothiophene (C8BTBT) and copper (Cu) electrodes were fabricated. For improving the electrical performance of the original devices, the different modifications were attempted to insert in three different positions including semiconductor/electrode interface, semiconductor bulk inside and semiconductor/insulator interface. In detail, 4,4′,4′′-tris[3-methylpheny(phenyl)amino] triphenylamine (m-MTDATA) was applied between C8BTBTand Cu electrodes as hole injection layer (HIL). Moreover, the fluorinated copper phthalo-cyanine (F16CuPc) was inserted in C8BTBT/SiO2 interface to form F16CuPc/C8BTBT heterojunction or C8BTBT bulk to form C8BTBT/F16CuPc/C8BTBT sandwich configuration. Our experiment shows that, the sandwich structured OTFTs have a significant performance enhancement when appropriate thickness modification is chosen, comparing with original C8BTBT devices. Then, even the low work function metal Cu was applied, a normal p-type operate-mode C8BTBT-OTFT with mobility as high as 2.56 cm2/Vs has been fabricated.

P Type

Organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) with silicon oxide (SiO2)/poly(4-vinylphenol) (PVP)/polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) tri-layer structure (SPP) as dielectric layers have been fabricated. To verify the validity of such tri-layer structure, two different organic semiconductor materials such as p-type pentacene and n-type fluorinated copper phthalo–cyanine (F16CuPc) are both used for fabricating OTFTs. Comparing with the OTFTs even by using PMMA modification, the better interface quality existing between SPP dielectric and organic film leads a higher conductive efficiency for transport carriers in channel. And then the field effect carriers (hole in pentacene OTFTs and electron in F16CuPc OTFTs) mobilities are both increased obviously. Our results show the SPP dielectric structure can be widely used to improve performance of OTFTs.
