ABSTRACTThe design, synthesis, and properties of two mixed perfluorophenyl-thiophene oligomers 5,5″′-diperfluorophenyl-2,2′:5′,2″:5″,2″′:5″′,2″″:5″″,2″″′-quaterthiophene (2) and 5,5′-bis{1-[4-(thien-2-yl)-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenyl)] }-2,2′-dithiophene (3) are presented. Molecular characterization included the following techniques: multinuclear NMR, DSC and TGA, optical UV-Vis and photoluminescence spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry. Thin films can be easily grown by vacuum evaporation and have been characterized by optical UV-Vis and photoluminescence, XRD, and field-effect transistor measurements. Electron and hole mobilities of 0.06–0.08 cm2/(V s) and 0.001–0.003 cm2/(V s) were found for 2 and 3, respectively.

The patterned growth of crystalline rubrene films directly on electrodes is demonstrated. In addition, organic films with close packed and porous structures are locally achieved by controlling the electrode spaces, resulting in a two orders of magnitude difference in carrier mobility.

Donor-Acceptor-Donor (D-A-D) based conjugated molecules 4,7-bis(5-(4-butoxyphenyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (BOP-TBT) and 4,7-bis(5-(4-trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thiophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (TFP-TBT) using thiophene-benzothiadiazole-thiophene central core with trifluoromethyl phenyl and butoxyphenyl end capping groups were designed and synthesised via Suzuki coupling. Optical, electrochemical, thermal, and organic field effect transistor (OFET) device properties of BOP-TBT and TFP-TBT were investigated. Both small molecules possess two absorption bands. Optical band gaps were calculated from the absorption cut off to be in the range of 2.06–2.25 eV. Cyclic voltammetry indicated reversible oxidation and reduction processes and the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy levels were calculated to be in the range of 5.15–5.40 eV and 3.25–3.62 eV, respectively. Upon testing both materials for OFET, trifluoromethylphenyl end capped material (TFP-TBT) shows n-channel behaviour whereas butoxyphenyl end capped material (BOP-TBT) shows p-channel behaviour. Density functional theory calculations correlated with shifting of HOMO-LUMO energy levels with respect to end capping groups. Vacuum processed OFET of these materials have shown highest hole carrier mobility of 0.02 cm2/Vs and electron carrier mobility of 0.004 cm2/Vs, respectively using Si/SiO2 substrate. By keeping the central D-A-D segment and just by tuning end capping groups gives both p- and n-channel organic semiconductors which can be prepared in a single step using straightforward synthesis.

AbstractOrganic semiconductors exhibiting complementary n-type carrier mobility are the key components for the development of the field of “plastic electronics”. We present here a novel series of oligothiophenes designed to improve performance and stability under electron- transporting conditions. Furthermore, the key structural features of these compounds allows additional modifications of the n-type conducting core to achieve material solubility and processability. Thin film transistor (TFT) devices were fabricated employing both vacuum- and solution-deposited semiconducting layers. Field-effect transistor measurements indicate that all the members of this new series are n-type semiconductors with mobilities and Ion:Ioff ratios approaching 1 cm2/(Vs) and 107, respectively. This family represents a key milestone in the design, understanding, and development of the next generation of highly efficient n-type OTFT components.

ABSTRACTTo benefit from the many advantages of organic semiconductors like flexibility, transparency, and small thickness, electronic devices should be entirely made from organic materials. This means, additionally to organic LEDs, organic solar cells, and organic sensors, we need organic transistors to amplify, process, and control signals and electrical power. The standard lateral organic field effect transistor (OFET) does not offer the necessary performance for many of these applications. One promising candidate for solving this problem is the vertical organic field effect transistor (VOFET). In addition to the altered structure of the electrodes, the VOFET has one additional part compared to the OFET – the source-insulator. However, the influence of the used material, the size, and geometry of this insulator on the behavior of the transistor has not yet been examined. We investigate key-parameters of the VOFET with different source insulator materials and geometries. We also present transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images of the edge area. Additionally, we investigate the charge transport in such devices using drift-diffusion simulations and the concept of a vertical organic light emitting transistor (VOLET). The VOLET is a VOFET with an embedded OLED. It allows the tracking of the local current density by measuring the light intensity distribution.We show that the insulator material and thickness only have a small influence on the performance, while there is a strong impact by the insulator geometry – mainly the overlap of the insulator into the channel. By tuning this overlap, on/off-ratios of 9x105 without contact doping are possible.
