摘要
Silver nanowires (AgNWs)/poly-(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene/polystyrene sulphonate) (PEDOT:PSS) composite films as conductive electrode for OTFTs were prepared, and their optical and electrical properties were investigated. The conductive composite films used in this study afforded low sheet resistance of <140 Omega/sq and transmittance as high as 70% in the visible region. For the composite film with 0.1 wt.% of AgNWs, contact resistance as low as 2.7 x 10(4) Omega cm was obtained, as examined by Transfer length model (TLM) analysis, and work function of the corresponding film was 5.0 eV. Furthermore, the composite films were employed as source and drain electrodes for top-gate/bottom-contact organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) based on solution-processed 5,11-bistriethylsilylethynyl anthradithiophene (TES-ADT) as organic semiconductor, and the resulting device showed high electrical performance with carrier mobility as high as 0.21 cm(2)/V s.
