To improve injection in n-type organic thin film transistors (OTFTs), a thin conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) layer was interposed between electrodes and the semiconductor layer. OTFTs were fabricated with [6,6]-phenyl-C(61) butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) and Au source and drain contacts. We demonstrate that the insertion of CPEs beneath top-contact Au source/drain electrodes can be a very effective strategy for improving the carrier injection and reducing turn-on threshold voltages of n-channel OTFTs. Ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS) indicates that the decrease of the electron injection barrier is consistent with organized dipoles at the metal/organic interface.
为了改善 n 型有机薄膜晶体管(OTFT)的注入特性,在电极和半导体层之间插入了一层薄的共轭聚合物电解质(CPE)。使用[6,6]-苯基-C(61)丁酸甲酯(PCBM)和 Au 源漏电极制备了 OTFT。我们证明了在顶接触 Au 源/漏电极下插入 CPE 可以成为一种非常有效的策略,用于改善载流子注入并降低 n 通道 OTFT 的开启阈值电压。紫外光电子能谱(UPS)表明,电子注入势垒的降低与金属/有机界面处的有序偶极子一致。
