Here, we study the temperature-dependent transport properties of OFETs with prototypical OSC 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)pentacene (TIPS-pentacene) co-processed polystyrene (PS) as active layer. The layer is deposited directly on SiO2 using bar-assisted meniscus shearing (BAMS) method. co-processing PS favors a consequential decrease in interfacial trap densities previously reported. Furt...

A real-number to molecular structure mapping is a topological index. It graph invariant method for describing physico-chemical properties of structures specific substances. In that article, We examined pentacene’s chemical composition. The research on the subsequent indices reflected in our paper, we conducted an analysis several including general randic connectivity index, first zagreb sum-con...

Here we introduce time-resolved electric force microscopy measurements to directly and locally probe the kinetics of charge trap formation in a polycrystalline pentacene thin-film transistor. We find that the trapping rate depends strongly on the initial concentration of free holes and that trapped charge is highly localized. The observed dependence of trapping rate on the hole chemical potenti...

This work reports the various aspects of the application of atomic force microscopy (AFM), for the characterization oforganic semiconductors and DNA-based arrays, for organic electronics and biological applications. On these soft surfaces, theamplitude modulation AFM mode was chosen. This choice is argued by a study of dissipative processes, performed on a particularsample, a DNA ch...

By using electric-field-induced optical second-harmonic generation (EFISHG) measurement, we analyzed hysteresis behavior of capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics of IZO/polyterpenol (PT)/C60/pentacene/Au diodes, where PT layer is actively working as a hole-transport electron-blocking layer. The EFISHG measurement verified the presence of interface accumulated charges in the diodes, and show...

Electrons and holes are locally injected in a single pentacene monolayer island. The twodimensional distribution and concentration of the injected carriers are measured by electrical force microscopy. In crystalline monolayer islands, both carriers are delocalized over the whole island. On disordered monolayer, carriers stay localized at their injection point. These results provide insight into...

We present a comparative study of ultrafast photoconversion dynamics in tetracene (Tc) and pentacene (Pc) single crystals and Pc films using optical pump-probe spectroscopy. Photoinduced absorption in Tc and Pc crystals is activated and temperature-independent, respectively, demonstrating dominant singlet-triplet exciton fission. In Pc films (as well as C60-doped films) this decay channel is su...

We present a possible mechanism for the saturation of the velocity of photoinjected charge carriers in pure organic crystals, the analysis having been motivated by observations in pentacene. The mechanism is based on the strong wave vector dependence of the damping coefficient appearing in the appropriate effective mass equation. Our primary goal is to explore this mechanism in general terms ra...

Solution processed fullerene (C60) molecular floating gate layer has been employed in low voltage nonvolatile memory device on flexible substrates. We systematically studied the charge trapping mechanism of the fullerene floating gate for both p-type pentacene and n-type copper hexadecafluorophthalocyanine (F16CuPc) semiconductor in a transistor based flash memory architecture. The devices base...

We report the epitaxial growth of thin films of a small organic molecule (pentacene) on polymer substrates with controllable photoalignment over a wide range. The pentacene molecular plane exhibited a distinct orientational change from parallel to perpendicular relative to the polymer chain with increasing substrate polymer alignment. Each orientation consists of twinlike domains. Such characte...
