Abstract:
Example embodiments pertain to an organic semiconductor composition, in which low-molecular-weight oligomer compounds are distributed in the spaces of a polymer compound so that the free spaces of the organic semiconductor polymer compound are filled with the low-molecular-weight oligomer compounds upon the formation of an organic semiconductor thin film, thereby increasing π-π stacking effects, and to an organic semiconductor thin film using the same and an organic electronic device employing the thin film. Using the organic semiconductor composition according to example embodiments, a semiconductor thin film and an organic electronic device having improved electrical properties may be manufactured.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an insulating organic polymer having side chains that enable the formation of a highly hydrophobic insulating layer with decreased surface energy. Decreased surface energy of an organic insulating layer formed using the insulating organic polymer may lead to an increase in the degree of alignment of a semiconductor material. Therefore, the insulating organic polymer may be used to fabricate an organic thin film transistor having improved characteristics, e.g., decreased threshold voltage and increased charge carrier mobility. Further disclosed are an organic insulating layer formed using the insulating polymer, an organic thin film transistor comprising the insulating layer and a method of fabricating the same, and an electronic device comprising the organic thin film transistor.
Abstract:
Disclosed are organic semiconductor materials, including mixtures of relatively low molecular weight aromatic ring compounds, in which at least one nitrogen atom or oxygen atom is present as a heteroatom in the aromatic ring compounds for forming hydrogen bonds between the heteroatom(s) and adjacent molecules and thereby increase intermolecular stacking. Organic semiconductor layers formed using such organic semiconductor materials will, accordingly, exhibit increased intermolecular stacking and associated improvements in one or more electrical properties of the semiconductor layer. Organic thin film transistors incorporating such organic semiconductor layers will tend to exhibit improved transistor properties including, for example, increased carrier mobility and reduced off-state leakage current. Further, the organic semiconductor layers may be manufactured using conventional room temperature processes, for example, spin coating or printing, thereby simplifying the fabrication process.
