RESUMO
The influence of doping on doped bottom-gate bottom-contact organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) is discussed. It is shown that the inclusion of a doped layer at the dielectric/organic semiconductor layer leads to a significant reduction in the contact resistances and a fine control of the threshold voltage. Through varying the thickness of the doped layer, a linear shift of threshold voltage V T from -3.1 to -0.22 V is observed for increasing thickness of doped layer. Meanwhile, the contact resistance at the source and drain electrode is reduced from 138.8 MΩ at V GS = -10 V for 3 nm to 0.3 MΩ for 7 nm thick doped layers. Furthermore, an increase of charge mobility is observed for increasing thickness of doped layer. Overall, it is shown that doping can minimize injection barriers in bottom-contact OFETs with channel lengths in the micro-meter regime, which has the potential to increase the performance of this technology further.
