From organic single crystals to solution processed thin-films: Charge transport and trapping with varying degree of order
2013
We have fabricated single crystal, thermally evaporated, and spin-coated thin-film transistors (TFTs) from the same organic semiconductor N,N′-1H,1H-perfluorobutyl dicyanoperylene carboxydiimide (PDIF-CN2) using various combinations of deposition methods and gate dielectrics to investigate how the charge transport properties vary with the degree of crystalline order. Never before has a semiconductor been studied in such a wide variety of processing methods, allowing cross-comparison of the microscopic factors influencing the charge transport, and in particular the trap density of states (DOS). Excellent transistor performance was achieved for PDIF-CN2 single crystals in combination with Cytop as a dielectric layer resulting in a mobility of up to 6 cm2/Vs, an on/off-ratio exceeding 108, and a subthreshold swing of 0.45 V/dec. Furthermore, gate-bias-stress effects are not present in these transistors and we observed low stress effects in the evaporated TFTs with Cytop as the gate dielectric. These findings...
