Organic semiconductors based on vacuum-deposited films of fused-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon have great potential to be utilized as an active layer for electronic and optoelectronic devices. In this study, pentacene thin films and electrode materials were deposited by Organic Molecular Beam Deposition (OMBD) and vacuum evaporation respectively. For the gate dielectric layer, OPTMER PC403 photo acryl (JSR Coporation.) was spin-coated and cured at $220^{\circ}C$. Electrical characteristics of the devices were investigated, where the channel length and width was $50{\mu}m$ and 5 mm. It was found that field effect mobility was $0.039\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$, threshold voltage was -7 V, and on/off current ratio was $10^6$.

We investigated the electrical properties of tris-isopropylsilylethynyl (TIPS)-pentacene organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) employing Ni/Ag source/drain electrodes. The gap height between the gate insulator and S/D electrode was controlled by changing the thickness of Ag under-layer(20, 30, 40 and 50nm). After evaporating the Ni under-layer, TIPS pentacene channel material was dropping the gap between the gate insulator and SID electrodes. The electrical proprieties of OTFT such as filed-effect mobility, on/off ratio, threshold voltage and subthreshold slope were significantly influenced by the gap height.

Pentacene has excellent semi-conducting characteristics. But pentacene practically used in OTFTs gives rise to problems mainly due to its sensitivity to oxygen and its very low solubility. In order to make up the problems, 6,13-disubstituted pentacene derivative was synthesized and characterized. The properties of the compound were characterized by FT-IR, NMR and we measured the charge transport mobility and the on/off current ratios.

A novel technique of alternating magnetic field (AMF) is investigated to improve the electrical conducting properties of pentacene. By applying AMF to pentacene layer, the electrical conductivity of pentacene was enhanced, which can be applied for characteristic improvements of pentacene-based thin-film transistors. In this study, the annealing effects of pentacene layer using AMF will be discussed.

We investigated the effect of Cr thickness on the electrical properties of triisopropylsilyl pentacene organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) employing suspended source-drain electrode. With Cr thickness of 10 nm, the field-effect mobility, on/off ratio and subthreshold slope were $0.017\;cm^2/Vs$, $8.78\;{\times}\;10^3$ and 10 V/decade, respectively. By increasing the Cr thickness to 100 nm, the fieldeffect mobility was increased to $0.032\;cm^2/Vs$, on/off ratio to $1.12{\times}10^5$ and subthreshold slope to 1 V/decade.

The integrated circuits such as inverters, ring oscillators, NAND and NOR gates, and rectifiers were fabricated on PEN substrate by using pentacene TFTs. The OTFTs used bottom contact structure and produced the average mobility of $0.26\;cm^2/V.sec$ and on/off current ratio of $10^5$. All circuits worked successfully like the simulation results. Especially, the rectifier was able to operate up to 1 MHz input signals, and ring oscillator exhibited oscillation frequency of 1MHz at-40V.

In this study, we investigate the capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics of metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) capacitors consisting of pentacene, as an organic semiconductor, and polymeric insulators such as poly(4-vinylphenol) (PVP) orpolystyrene (PS) prepared by spin-coating process, to analyze the interfacial characteristics between pentacene and polymeric insulators. Compared with the device with PS, the MIS capacitor with PVP exhibited a pronounced shift in the flat-band voltage according to the bias sweep direction. This hysteric feature in the C-V characteristics is thought to be attributed to the trapped charges at the interface between pentacene and PVP owing to the hydrophilicity of PVP. From the experimental results, we can conclude that surface polarity of polymeric insulator has a critical effect on the interfacial properties, thereby affecting the bias stability of organic thin-film transistors.

In this paper, we investigated the effect of solvent on electrical properties of triisopropylsilyl (TIPS) pentacene organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs). The TIPS pentacene was spin coated by using chlorobenzene, p-xylene, chloroform and toluene as solvent. Fabricated OTFT with chlorobenzene showed field-effect mobility of $0.01\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, on/off ratio $4.3{\times}10^3$ and threshold voltage of 5.5 V. In contrast, with chloroform the mobility was $5.8{\times}10^{-7}\;cm^2/Vs$, on/off ratio $1.1{\times}10^2$ and threshold voltage of 1.7 V.

We report the performance of pentacene-based organic thin film transistors (OTFT) with PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) as the gate insulator which was spin-coated on the ITO (indium tin oxide) glass substrate which was used as the gate contact. The pentacene thin film was deposited on the PMMA film and then Au source/drain contacts were deposited through shadow mask. The pentacene film shows better molecular ordering on PMMA compared with $SiO_2$ of Si wafer. The devices exhibited the field effect mobility of ${\sim}0.004cm^2$/Vs and on/off current ratio of ${\sim}10^3$.
