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.

AbstractIn this paper, we investigated the performance of thin-film transistors (TFTs) with different channel configurations including single-active-layer (SAL) Sn-Zn-O (TZO), dual-active-layers (DAL) In-Sn-O (ITO)/TZO, and triple-active-layers (TAL) TZO/ITO/TZO. The TAL TFTs were found to combine the advantages of SAL TFTs (a low off-state current) and DAL TFTs (a high mobility and a low threshold voltage). The proposed TAL TFTs exhibit superior electrical performance, e.g. a high on-off state current ratio of 2 × 108, a low threshold voltage of 0.63 V, a high field effect mobility of 128.6 cm2/Vs, and a low off-state current of 3.3 pA. The surface morphology and characteristics of the ITO and TZO films were investigated and the TZO film was found to be C-axis-aligned crystalline (CAAC). A simplified resistance model was deduced to explain the channel resistance of the proposed TFTs. At last, TAL TFTs with different channel lengths were also discussed to show the stability and the uniformity of our fabrication process. Owing to its low-processing temperature, superior electrical performance, and low cost, TFTs with the proposed TAL channel configuration are highly promising for flexible displays where the polymeric substrates are heat-sensitive and a low processing temperature is desirable.

In this study, we prepared solution-based In–Ga–ZnO thin film transistors (IGZO TFTs) having a multistacked active layer. The solution was prepared using an In:Zn = 1:1 mole ratio with variation in Ga content, and the TFTs were fabricated by stacking layers from the prepared solutions. After we measured the mobility of each stacked layer, the saturation mobility showed values of 0.8, 0.6 and 0.4 (cm2/Vs), with an overall decrease in electrical properties. The interface formed between the each layers affected the current path, resulting in reduced electrical performance. However, when the gate bias VG = 10 V was applied for 1500 s, the threshold voltage shift decreased in the stack. The uniformity of the active layer was improved in the stacked active layer by filling the hole formed during pre-baking, resulting in improved device stability. Also, the indium ratio was increased to enhance the mobility from 0.86 to 3.47. These results suggest high mobility and high stability devices can be produced with multistacked active layers.

AbstractWe have investigated the effects of white-light illumination on the electrical performance of organic polymer thin-film transistors (OP-TFTs). The OFF-state drain current is significantly increased, while the drain current in the strong accumulation regime is relatively unaffected. At the same time, the threshold voltage is decreased and the subthreshold slope is increased, while the field-effect mobility of the charge carriers is not affected. The observed effects are explained in terms of the photogeneration of free charge carriers in the channel region due to the absorbed photons.
