摘要
We have developed an organic thin-film transistor (TFT) technology that aims at providing a good balance of static and dynamic performance parameters. An inverted staggered (bottom-gate, top-contact) device structure with patterned metal gates, a room-temperature-deposited gate dielectric providing a capacitance of 0.7 mu F/cm(2), and vacuum-deposited pentacene as the semiconductor were employed. The TFTs have a channel length of 10 mu m, a carrier mobility of 0.4 cm(2)/V s, an on/off current ratio of 10(7), a subthreshold swing of 100 mV/decade, and a transconductance per channel width of 40 mu S/mm. Ring oscillators operate with supply voltages as low as 2 V and with signal propagation delays as low as 200 mu s per stage. (C) 2007 American Institute of Physics.
