We review recent physics-based, analytical DC models for amorphous silicon (a-Si), polysilicon (poly-Si), and organic thin film transistors (TFTs), developed for the design of novel ultra high-resolution, large area displays using advanced short-channel TFTs. In particular, we emphasize the modeling issues related to the main short-channel effects, such as self-heating (a-Si TFTs) and kink effect (a-Si and poly-Si TFTs), which are present in modern TFTs. The models have been proved to accurately reproduce the DC characteristics of a-Si:H with gate lengths down to 4 μm and poly-Si TFTs with gate lengths down to 2 μm. Because the scalability of the models and the use of continuous expressions for describing the characteristics in all operating regimes, the models are suitable for implementation in circuit simulators such as SPICE.

Organic thin-film field-effect transistors (OTFTs) are emerging as attractive candidates for low-price, large-area, and flexible circuit applications. A variety of organic compounds have been utilized as active semiconductor materials for OTFTs, among which phthalocyanine compounds have attracted considerable attention owing to their remarkable chemical and thermal stability as well as good field-effect performance. Here, we review recent results on the phthalocyanine-based OTFTs. The correlation between the crystal packing structure and the charge transport property is discussed, and we conclude with a description of the future prospects for phthalocyanine-based OTFTs.

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 0.5 cm2 V-1 s-1 have been archived, which bring printed OTFTs one step closer to commercialization.

Abstract:All-inkjet-printed organic thin-film transistors take advantage of low-cost fabrication and high compatibility to large-area manufacturing, making them potential candidates for flexible, wearable electronics. However, in real-world applications, device instability is an obstacle, and thus, understanding the factors that cause instability becomes compelling. In this work, all-inkjet-printed low-voltage organic thin-film transistors were fabricated and their stability was investigated. The devices demonstrate low operating voltage (<3 V), small subthreshold slope (128 mV/decade), good mobility (0.1 cm2 V−1 s−1), close-to-zero threshold voltage (−0.16 V), and high on/off ratio (>105). Several aspects of stability were investigated, including mechanical bending, shelf life, and bias stress. Based on these tests, we find that water molecule polarization in dielectrics is the main factor causing instability. Our study suggests use of a printable water-resistant dielectric for stability enhancement for the future development of all-inkjet-printed organic thin-film transistors.

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.
