Hysteresis-Free Vacuum-Processed Acrylate-Pentacene Thin-Film Transistors

In this study, we report on the electrical characteristics of all-vacuum-processed pentacene thin film transistors, with stable and reproducible performance, using high throughput roll-to-roll processing. The method allows a polymerised tripropyleneglycol diacrylate (TPGDA) insulator layer of thickn...

Description
Summary:In this study, we report on the electrical characteristics of all-vacuum-processed pentacene thin film transistors, with stable and reproducible performance, using high throughput roll-to-roll processing. The method allows a polymerised tripropyleneglycol diacrylate (TPGDA) insulator layer of thickness up to 1µm to be obtained in a single pass by ultrahigh flash evaporation of monomer onto a web travelling at 10 m min
