Anomalous current transients in organic field-effect transistors

Organic Field-Effect Transistors

Organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) were first described in 1987. Their characteristics have undergone spectacular improvements during the last two or three years. At the same time, several models have been developed to rationalize their operating mode. In this review, we examine the performance of OFETs as revealed by recently published data, mainly in terms of field-effect mobility and o...

Organic field effect transistors

This chapter aims to provide the reader with a practical knowledge about electrical methods to measure organic thin film transistor devices. It presents a series of recipes, which allow the experimentalist to gain insight into the performance and limitations of the devices and circuits being measured. It also gives guidelines on how to correctly interpret the measurements and to provide feedbac...

Organic Field-Effect Transistors

Over the past twenty years, research into the applications of organic semiconductors (OSCs) has intensified rapidly. Though their electron mobility is much lower than that of typical semiconductors, OSCs show promise in low-cost, flexible, lightweight, and environmentally-friendly semiconductor applications. Their hole mobility was found to be comparable to that of amorphous silicon (a-Si), wit...

Current versus gate voltage hysteresis in organic field effect transistors

Research into organic field effect transistors (OFETs) has made significant advances—both scientifically and technologically—during the last decade, and the first products will soon enter the market. Printed electronic circuits using organic resistors, diodes and transistors may become cheap alternatives to silicon-based systems, especially in large-area applications. A key parameter for device...
