End-substitution of quarterthiophene and sexithiophene with hexyl groups leads to highly soluble conjugated oligomers, -dihexylquarterthiophene (DH-4T) and -dihexylsexithiophene (DH-6T). We have characterized these oligomers for optical and electrical properties. We fabricated an organic thin film transistor (OTFT) using the above two air-stable p-type organic semiconductor materials. We obtain...

The organic light-emitting transistor (OLET) is an emerging optoelectronic device having the structure of a thin-film transistor and the capability of light generation [1]. Bright/multicolor OLETs may allow electroluminescent display fabrication with simpler driving circuits. Furthermore, the most advanced OLETs encompass a huge technological potential for the realization of intense nanoscale l...

Flexible In-Ga-ZnO (IGZO) thin film transistor (TFT) on a polyimide substrate is produced by employing a thermally stable SA7 organic material as the multi-functional barrier and dielectric layers. The IGZO channel layer was sputtered at Ar:O2 gas flow rate of 100:1 sccm and the fabricated TFT exhibited excellent transistor performances with a mobility of 15.67 cm2/Vs, a threshold voltage of 6....

Organic Thin Film Transistors (OTFT), gated through an aqueous electrolyte, have extensively been studied as sensors in various applications. These water-gated devices are known to work both as electrochemical (Organic ElectroChemical Transistor OECT) and field-effect (Organic Field-Effect Transistor OFET) devices. To properly model and predict the response of water-gated OTFT sensors it is imp...

Ambipolar organic electronics offer great potential for simple and low-cost fabrication of complementary logic circuits on large-area and mechanically flexible substrates. Ambipolar transistors are ideal candidates for the simple and low-cost development of complementary logic circuits since they can operate as n-type and p-type transistors. Nevertheless, the experimental demonstration of ambip...

We report on the electrical in-situ characterisation of organic thin film transistors under high vacuum conditions. Model devices in a bottom-gate/bottom-contact (coplanar) configuration are electrically characterised in-situ, monolayer by monolayer (ML), while the organic semiconductor (OSC) is evaporated by organic molecular beam epitaxy (OMBE). Thermal SiO2 with an optional polymer interface...

Current scanning technology for the brain and heart requires electrodes to be placed on the surface, with a wire connected to each electrode. Because the electrodes are large, it is impossible to achieve a high sampling resolution of the signals from the tissue being scanned. Silicon based structures are not very suitable for this application. They have a rigid planar surface which prevents the...

Emerging large-area technologies based on organic transistors are enabling the fabrication of low-cost flexible circuits, smart sensors and biomedical devices. High-gain transistors are essential for the development of large-scale circuit integration, high-sensitivity sensors and signal amplification in sensing systems. Unfortunately, organic field-effect transistors show limited gain, usually ...
