Compact Modeling of Nonlinear Contact Effects in Short-Channel Coplanar and Staggered Organic Thin-Film Transistors

Organic Thin-Film Transistors: Part I—Compact DC Modeling

A generic analytical model for the current–voltage characteristics of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) is derived. Based on this generic model, a TFT compact dc model that meets the requirements for compact modeling, including for computer circuit simulators, is proposed. The models are fully symmetrical, and the TFT compact dc model covers all regimes of TFT operation—linear and saturatio...

n-Channel organic thin film transistors and complementary inverters

n-channel organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) with field-effect mobility comparable to that typically reported for pchannel pentacene TFTs were fabricated on oxidized silicon wafers using N,N'-ditridecylperylene-3,4,9,10tetracarboxylic diimide (PTCDI-C13H27) as the semiconductor. Au, Cr, Al, and LiF/Al source and drain contacts were studied. Accumulation mode n-channel transistor operation wa...

Stable organic thin-film transistors

Organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) can be fabricated at moderate temperatures and through cost-effective solution-based processes on a wide range of low-cost flexible and deformable substrates. Although the charge mobility of state-of-the-art OTFTs is superior to that of amorphous silicon and approaches that of amorphous oxide thin-film transistors (TFTs), their operational stability general...
