Systematic Improvement in Charge Carrier Mobility of Air Stable Triarylamine Copolymers
摘要:
The electrical performance of organic semiconducting polymers in field-effect transistor devices is now sufficient for initial low complexity circuit applications. To achieve high performance, either operation in an inert atmosphere or a hydrophobic surface treatment and annealing step is typically required. In this communication we report a strategy to prepare fully air stable, amorphous semiconducting polymers which can achieve charge carrier mobilities in the range of 0.04 cm(2)/(V s), remaining over a period of over 3 months in ambient conditions
The present invention relates to organic copolymers and organic semiconducting compositions comprising these materials, including layers and devices comprising such organic semiconductor compositions. The invention is also concerned with methods of preparing such organic semiconductor compositions and layers and uses thereof. The invention has application in the field of printed electronics and is particularly useful as a semiconducting material for use in formulations for organic thin film transistor (OTFT) backplanes for displays, integrated circuits, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), photodetectors, organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells, sensors, memory elements and logic circuits.
A semiconductor composition which comprises a soluble polyacene semiconductor and a polymeric semiconducting binder the binder having a permittivity greater than 3.4 at 000 Hz. The charge mobility of the semiconducting binder when measured in a pure state is greater than 10−7 cm2/Vs and more preferably greater than 10−6 cm2/Vs. Organic thin film transistors in which the source and drain electrodes are bridged by the semiconductor composition have desirable properties of reproducibility and charge mobility. The organic semiconducting composition can be applied by solution coating.
