We fabricated organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) based a fluorinated copper phthalocyanine. ($F_{16}CuPc$) as an active layer. And we observed the surface morphology of the $F_{16}CuPc$ thin film. The $F_{16}CuPc$ thin film thickness was 40nm, and the channel length was $50{\mu}m$, channel width was 3mm. We observed the typical current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and capacitance-voltage (C-V) in $F_{16}CuPc$ FET and we calculated the effective mobility.

The active layer thickness and curing condition dependent performance of an organic thin film transistor (OTFT) with inkjetted organic semiconductor (OSC) layer is studied The best performance of the OTFT was found when the thickness of ose was ~120 nm cured at $60^{\circ}C$. The performance enhancement of the OTFT with inkjetted OSC layer was discussed by comparing the OTFT with spin-coated ose layer.

We report on the growth of rubrene ($C_{42}H_{28}$) wire fabricated by thermal evaporation, followed by solvent-vapor annealing for the application of organic thin film transistor. Solvent-vapor annealing was carried out in precisely controlled vapor pressure at elevated temperature. Micro-sized, and elongated rubrene wire was obtained via solvent annealing process reproducibly. Optical image and XRD data shows highly crystalline quality of rubrene wire.

유기 반도체는 합성 방법의 다양함, 섬유나 필름 형태로 성형이 용이함, 경량성, 유연성, 전도성, 저렴한 생산비, 높은 생산성 등의 특성을 가지고 있으며, 무기물과 같이 벌크 성질을 이용할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 분자 자체가 기능성을 가지므로 초박막의 형태에서도 기능성이 유지되어 새로운 초박막 기능성 전자소자 및 광소자의 개발이 가능하다. 특히 플라스틱과 같이 유연한 기판에 박막을 성형할 수 있기 때문에 기존의 고체 반도체로써 실현할 수 없는 두루마리 TV와 같은 flexible application에 적용할 수 있다. 본 발표에서는 유기반도체를 사용하는 유기소자 중 유기박막트랜지스터(Organic Thin Film Transistor; OTFT)에 대한 전반적인 기술동향과 동작원리 및 소자구조와 성능과의 관련성, 그리고 성능 개선을 위하여 시도되고 있는 여러 가지 공정 및 표면처리의 효과에 대하여 설명한다. 또한 본 연구실에서 수행하고 있는 OTFT 관련 연구현황을 소개하고 OTFT의 발전방향을 예측해 본다.

We fabricated a single crystal silicon thin film transistor for active matrix organic light emitting displays(AMOLEDs) using silicon on insulator wafer (SOI wafer). Poly crystal silicon thin film transistor(poly-Si TFT) Is actively researched and developed nowsdays for a pixel switching devices of AMOLEDs. However, poly-Si TFT has some disadvantages such as high off-state leakage currents and low field-effect mobility due to a trap of grain boundary in active channel. While single crystal silicon TFT has many advantages such as high field effect mobility, low off-state leakage currents, low power consumption because of the low threshold voltage and simultaneous integration of driving ICs on a substrate. In our experiment, we compared the property of poly-Si TFT with that of SOI TFT. Poly-Si TFT exhibited a field effect mobility of 34 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vs, an off-state leakage current of about l${\times}$10$\^$-9/ A at the gate voltage of 10 V, a subthreshold slope of 0.5 V/dec and on/off ratio of 10$\^$-4/, a threshold voltage of 7.8 V. Otherwise, single crystal silicon TFT on SOI wafer exhibited a field effect mobility of 750 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vs, an off-state leakage current of about 1${\times}$10$\^$-10/ A at the gate voltage of 10 V, a subthreshold slope of 0.59 V/dec and on/off ratio of 10$\^$7/, a threshold voltage of 6.75 V. So, we observed that the properties of single crystal silicon TFT using SOI wafer are better than those of Poly Si TFT. For the pixel driver in AMOLEDs, the best suitable pixel driver is single crystal silicon TFT using SOI wafer.

In this study, we have been synthesized the dielectric layer using pure organic and organic-inorganic hybrid precursor on flexible substrate for improving of the organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) and, design and fabrication of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) using small-molecule organic semiconductors with pentacene as the active layer with record device performance. In this work OTFT test structures fabricated on polymerized substrates were utilized to provide a convenient substrate, gate contact, and gate insulator for the processing and characterization of organic materials and their transistors. By an adhesion development between gate metal and PI substrate, a PI film was treated using $O_2$ and $N_2$ gas. The best peel strength of PI film is 109.07 gf/mm. Also, we have studied the electric characteristics of pentacene field-effect transistors with the polymer gate-dielectrics such as cyclohexane and hybrid (cyclohexane+TEOS). The transistors with cyclohexane gate-dielectric has higher field-effect mobility, $\mu_{FET}=0.84\;cm^2/v_s$, and smaller threshold voltage, $V_T=-6.8\;V$, compared with the transistor with hybrid gate-dielectric.

Internal reorganization energy due to the structural relaxation in hole or electron hopping mechanism is one of the measurements of key indices in designing an organic thin film transistor (OTFT) for flexible display devices. In this study, the reorganization energies of dicyanoanthracenes for the hole and electron transfer were estimated by adiabatic potential energy surface and normal mode analysis method in order to examine the effect on the energies for the positional variation of the cyano substituents in the anthracene as a protocol of acenes to design an organic field effect transistor. The reorganization energy for the hole transfer was reduced considerably upon cyanation of anthracene, especially at the 9,10-positions of anthracene, and the origin of the reduction was interpreted in terms of understanding the coupling of vibrational modes to the hole transfer.

A bottom contact organic thin film transistor (OTFT) is fabricated with an organic double-layered gate insulator (GI) and pentacene. The PMMA and MNB layers are treated on gate insulator and source/drain (S/D, Au) before depositing pentacene to investigate device properties and pentacene growth. The sequence of surface treatment affects a device performance seriously. The ultra-thin PMMA (below 50A) was deposited on organic gate insulator and S/D metal by spin coating method, which showed no deterioration of on-state current (Ion) although bottom contact structure was exploited. We proposed that the reason of no contact resistance (Rc) increase may be due to a wettability difference in between PMMA / Au and PMMA / organic GI. As a result, the device treated by $PMMA\;{\rightarrow}\;MNB$ showed much better Ion behavior than those fabricated by $MNB\;{\rightarrow}\;PMMA$. We will report the important physical and electrical performance difference associated with surface treatment sequence.

We have fabricated vertical type organic thin film transistor using $C_{60}$ as a n-type active material to improve the problems of conventional OTFTs. In general, it can be argued that the characteristics of organic transistor were influenced by carrier mobility and density. We have used several kinds of metals as source and gate electrodes to optimize the device characteristics using $C_{60}$. In addition, we have examined the feasibility of fabrication of organic light-emitting transistor (OLET) using MEH-PPV as an emission layer.

We report on plasma damage free chemical vapor deposition technique for the thin film passivation of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic thin film transistor (OTFT) and flexible displays using catalyzer enhanced chemical vapor deposition (CECVD). Specially designed CECVD system has a ladder-shaped tungsten catalyzer and movable electrostatic chuck for low temperature deposition process. The top emitting OLED with thin film $SiN_x$ passivation layer shows electrical and optical characteristics comparable to those of the OLED with glass encapsulation. This indicates that the CECVD technique is a promising candidate to grow high-quality thin film passivation layer on OLED, OTFT, and flexible displays.
