Pentacene integrated thin-film transistors and circuits

Organic Thin-Film Transistors and TIPS-Pentacene

TIPS-Pentacene, an organic semiconductor characterized by its good electronic properties, solubility, and stability, is used primarily in organic thin-film transistors (OTFT). This research seeks to create an OTFT by crafting a stencil, depositing the source and drain onto a substrate’s surface, and processing TIPS-Pentacene onto the channel between them. In addition, if time permits, the elect...

Inkjet-Printed Silver Gate Electrode and Organic Dielectric Materials for Bottom-Gate Pentacene Thin-Film Transistors

An inkjet-printed silver electrode and a spin-coated cross-linked poly(4-vinylphenol)(PVP) dielectric layer were used as a gate electrode and a gate insulator for a bottom-gate pentacene thinlm transistor (TFT), respectively. The printing and the curing conditions of the printed silver electrode were optimized and tested on various substrates, such as glass, silicon, silicon dioxide, polyethers...

Organic Thin Film Transistors with Polyvinylpyrrolidone / Nickel Oxide Sol-Gel Derived Nanocomposite Insulator

Polyvinylpyrrolidone  /  Nickel  oxide  (PVP/NiO)  dielectrics  were fabricated  with  sol-gel  method  using  0.2  g  of  PVP  at  different working  temperatures  of  80,  150  and  200  ºC.  Structural  properties and surface morphology of the hybrid films were investigated by X- Ray  diffraction  (XRD)  and  Scanning  Electron Microscope  (SEM) respectively. Energy dispersive X-ray spec...

Analytical and T-cad Modeling of Pentacene Thin-film Transistors

Many researches report that the mobility in organic material is dependent on not only the gate field but also the grain size. There is also some evidence to prove that the gate length is strongly related to the carrier mobility. We construct both the analytical model of organic thin film transistor and the large signal circuit model designed by T-CAD to fit the measured DS DS V I − curves. We f...
