유기박막트랜지스터의 특성을 개선하기 위해서는 유기반도체와의 좋은 접합과 유전상수가 주요한 요인으로 작용한다. 무기 산화물 전구체와 유기고분자를 이용하여 유기 고분자의 단정인 낮은 유전율을 개선하였다. 스핀코팅 방법이 아닌 딥코팅 방법을 이용하여 절연막 두께를 10nm정도로 낮추어 구동전압을 개선하였으며 무기 절연체의 높은 누설전류 또한 그 특성이 개선되어 우수한 절연 특성을 보였다. 유-무기 복합체를 이용한 게이트 절연막과 펜타센을 이용한 유기박막트랜지스터의 구동전압은 1V정도에서 구동가능하며, 점멸비, 이동도 모두 개선된 결과를 보였다.

The amorphous $Bi_5Nb_3O_{15}$ film grown at room temperature under an oxygen-plasma sputtering ambient (BNRT-$O_2$ film) has a hydrophobic surface with a surface energy of $35.6\;mJm^{-2}$, which is close to that of the orthorhombic pentacene ($38\;mJm^{-2}$, resulting in the formation of a good pentacene layer without the introduction of an additional polymer layer. This film was very flexible, maintaining a high capacitance of $145\;nFcm^{-2}$ during and after 10s bending cycles with a small curvature radius of 7.5 mm. This film was optically transparent. Furthermore, the flexible, pentacene-based, organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) fabricated on the polyethersulphone substrate at room temperature using a BNRT-$O_2$ film as a gate insulator exhibited a promising device performance with a high field effect mobility of $0.5\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$, an on/off current modulation of $10^5$ and a small subthreshold slope of $0.2\;Vdecade^{-1}$ under a low operating voltage of -5 V. This device also maintained a high carrier mobility of $0.45\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ during the bending with a small curvature radius of 9 mm. Therefore, the BNRT-$O_2$ film is considered a promising material for the gate insulator of the flexible, pentacene-based OTFT.

We have fabricated vortical type organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) consisting of ITO/n type active material/Al gate/n type active material/Al using F16CuPc, NTCDA, PTCDA and PTCDI C-8. The effect of mobility of n type active materials and thin film thickness on current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and on/off ratios were investigated. The vortical type organic transistor using PTCDI C-8 exhibited low operation voltage and high on-off ratio. In addition, we have investigated the feasibility of application in organic light emitting transistor using light emitting polymer. Especially, the light emitting transistor consisting of ITO/PEDOT-PSS/P3HT/F16CuPc/Al gate/F16CuPc/Al showed the maximum quantum efficiency of 0.054.

Two fluorene-based conjugated copolymers containing hexyl-thiophene derivatives, PF-1T and PF-4T, were synthesized via the palladium-catalyzed Suzuki coupling reaction. The number-average molecular weights (Mn) of PF-1T and PF-4T were found to be 19,100 and 13,200, respectively. These polymers were soluble in common organic solvents such as chloroform, chlorobenzene, toluene, etc. The UV-vis absorption maximum peaks of PF-1T and PF-4T in the film state were found to be 410 nm and 431 nm, respectively. Electrochemical characterization revealed that these polymers have low highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) levels, indicating good resistance against oxidative doping. Thin film transistor devices were fabricated using the top contact geometry. PF-1T showed much better thin-film transistor performance than PF-4T. A thin film of PF- 1T gave a saturation mobility of 0.001-0.003 cm2 V?1 s?1, an on/off ratio of 1.0 × 105, and a small threshold voltage of ?8.3 V. To support TFT performance, we carried out DSC, AFM, and XRD measurements.
