We fabricated pentacene organic thin film transistor with good uniformity. And we extracted contact resistance in organic thin film transistors from the plot of the inverse of drain current versus channel length by extrapolating the curve to a channel length of zero, and multiplying by drain-source voltage. Extracted contact resistance is about $70K{\Omega}$ at gate-drain voltage of -20 V

We fabricated a pentacene thin-film transistor with Ni/Ag source/drain electrodes. Also, we obtained similar electrical characteristics as compared with source/drain electrode with Au. This device was found to have a field-effect mobility of about 0.021 $cm^2$/Vs, a threshold voltage of -5, -7 V, an subthreshold slope of 2.0, 4.5 V/decade, and an on!off current ratio of $3.6\times10^5$, $2.0\times10^6$.

Using a thermally-crosslinkable organosiloxane-based organic-inorganic hybrid material, solution processable gate dielectric layer for organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) have been fabricated. The hybrid dielectrics are synthesized by the sol-gel process, followed by the heat-treatment at $190{\bullet}\;.{\bullet}$ To investigate the electrical property of hybrid dielectric, leakage current behavior and capacitance were measured. To fabricate coplanar-type OTFTs, Au/Cr electrode was deposited onto the heavily doped silicon substrate with the organic-inorganic hybrid dielectric layer and then ${\alpha},{\omega}-dihexylquaterthiophene$ was drop-cast between source and drain electrical performance of the fabricated transistor.

Applying dual layer insulator on plastic substrates improved electrical characteristics of organic thin film transistor(TFT). A high-quality silicon dioxide(SiO$_2$) suitable for a insulator was deposited on plastic substrates by e-beam evaporation at 110$^{\circ}C$. The insulator film which was treated by N$_2$ annealing at 150$^{\circ}C$ showed excellent I-V, C-V characteristics. The dual layer insulator structure of polyimide-SiO$_2$ improved the roughness of SiO$_2$ surface and showed very low leakage current. In addition, the flat band voltage has been reduced from -2.5V to about 0.5V.

In this paper, $C_{60}$ based Organic thin film transistor OTFTs) have been fabricated using BPhen(Bathophenanthroline) and BPhen doped with Cs interlayers between $C_{60}$ active layer and Al electrodes to improve the electrical performance. The addition of the BPhen layer resulted in enhanced performances by reducing surface roughness between organic-metal interface. And the contact resistance was reduced by using the BPhen doped with Cs interlayer with co-evaporation method. These performances suggests that the $C_{60}$ based OTFT with BPhen doped with Cs interlayer is a promising application in the fabrication of n-type organic transistors.

With injection-type source delivery system of atomic layer deposition (ALD), bottom-contact and bottom-gate thin-film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated with a poly-4-vinyphenol polymeric dielectric for the first time. The properties of the ZnO TFT were greatly influenced by the device structure and the process conditions. The zinc oxide TFTs exhibited a channel mobility of 0.43 $cm^2$/Vs, a threshold voltage of 0.85 V, a subthreshold slope of 3.30 V/dec, and an on-to-off current ratio of above $10^6$ with solid saturation.

We herein present results of flat and uniform polymer-blended small molecular semiconductor thin films. Which were produced for organic thin film transistors (OTFTs), using a simple pre-metered horizontal dipping process. The organic semiconducting thin films were composed of 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)-pentacene (TIPS-PEN) composite blended with a polymer binder of poly(${\alpha}$-methylstyrene) (PaMS). We show that the pre-metered horizontal-dip-coating(H-dip-coating) process allowed the critical control of the thickness of the blended TIPS-PEN:PaMs thin film. The fabricated OTFTs using the TIPS-PEN:PaMs films exhibited maximum field-effect mobility of $0.22\;cm^2\;V^{-1}\;s^{-1}$. These results demonstrated that H-dip-coated TIPS-PEN:PaMS films show considerable promise for the production of reliable, reproducible, and high-performance OTFTs.

A new process for polymeric gate insulator in field-effect transistors was proposed. Fourier transform infrared absorption spectra were measured in order to identify ODPA-ODA polyimide. Its breakdown field and electrical conductivity were measured. All-organic thin-film transistors with a stacked-inverted top-contact structure were fabricated to demonstrate that thermally evaporated polyimide films could be used as a gate insulator. As a result, the transistor performances with evaporated polyimide was similar with spin-coated polyimide. It seems that the mass-productive in-situ solution-free processes for all-organic thin-film transistors are possible by using the proposed method without vacuum breaking.

We obtained high performance of n-type organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) using a solution process. N, N' bis-(octyl-)-dicyanoperylene-3,4:9,10-bis(dicarboximide) (PDI-$8CN_2$) in ambient air. Low work function interlayer on source/drain is needed to enhance the electron injection to low LUMO level of n-type organic semiconductor. By using self-assembled monolayer (SAM) the field-effect mobility of 0.33 $cm^2$/Vs was achieved.

A new current-driving pixel circuit for active-matrix organic light-emitting diodes (AMOLEDs), composed of four organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) and one capacitor, is proposed using a current scaling method. Designing pixel circuits with OTFTs has many problems due to the instability of the OTFT parameters with still unknown characteristics of the material. Despite the problems in using OTFTs to drive the pixel circuit, our work could be set as a goal for future OTFT development. The simulation results show enhanced linearity between input data and OLEO luminescence at low current levels as well as successfully compensating the variation of the OTFTs, such as the threshold voltage and mobility.
