Air-stable ambipolar organic field effect transistors with heterojunction of pentacene and N,N''-bis(4-trifluoromethylben-zyl)perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide

Fabrication of ambipolar organic field-effect transistors(OFETs) is essential for the achievement of an organic complementary logic circuit.Ambipolar transports in OFETs with heterojunction structures are realized.We select pentacene as a P-type material and N,N’-bis(4-trifluoromethylben-zyl)perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide(PTCDI-TFB) as a n-type material in the active layer of the OFETs.The field-effect transistor shows highly airstable ambipolar characteristics with a field-effect hole mobility of 0.18 cm 2 /(V·s) and field-effect electron mobility of 0.031 cm 2 /(V·s).Furthermore the mobility only slightly decreases after being exposed to air and remains stable even for exposure to air for more than 60 days.The high electron affinity of PTCDI-TFB and the octadecyltrichlorosilane(OTS) self-assembly monolayer between the SiO 2 gate dielectric and the organic active layer result in the observed air-stable characteristics of OFETs with high mobility.The results demonstrate that using the OTS as a modified gate insulator layer and using high electron affinity semiconductor materials are two effective methods to fabricate OFETs with air-stable characteristics and high mobility.

原子力显微镜与x射线光电子能谱对LiBq4/ITO和LiBq4/CuPc/ITO的表面分析

利用原子力显微镜对8-羟基喹啉硼化锂(LiBq4)/铟锡氧化物和8-羟基喹啉硼化锂/酞菁铜(CuPc)/铟锡氧化物表面分别进行了扫描,显示了LiBq4在不同衬底上的形貌差异,并进一步利用样品表面的x射线光电子能谱图验证了这一差异.实验表明,CuPc层的加入改善了LiBq4的成膜质量,并将这种改善归因于分子构型与电子亲和势的不同.     

用AFM和XPS研究LiBq4/ITO的表面和界面

用原子力显微镜(AFM)研究了LiBq4／ITO样品表面形貌,结果表明LiBq4层中存在很多裂缝和空隙。用X射线光电子谱(XPS)研究样品表面和界面的电子状态,发现Cls谱在高结合能端出现氧化特征的肩峰,表明真空蒸发沉积的LiBq4分子存在明显的氧化现象;对Bls谱的分析发现,界面处B原子的相对值远低于理论值,说明界面处存在B原子离解,导致了LiBq4分子的更高氧化态;从Cls谱发现,表面污染C的比例很高,而界面处大为下降,原因是表面吸附了气体,从而证实了LiBq4表面存在大量空隙和裂缝。定量研究发现,界面处存在N原子与In、Sn原子的相互作用,这将影响LiBq4的发光颜色。

Analysis of the injection layer of PTCDA in OLEDs using x-ray photoemission spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy

Through the investigation of the sample surface and interface of 3, 4, 9, 10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride （PTCDA）/indium-tin-oxide （ITO） thin films using atomic force microscopy, it has been found that the surface is complanate, the growth is uniform and the defects cover basically the surface of ITO. Furthermore, the number of pinholes is small. The analysis of the sample surface and interface further verifies this result by using x-ray photoemission spectroscopy. At the same time, PTCDA is found to have the ability of restraining the diffusion of chemical constituents from ITO to the hole transport layer, which is beneficial to the improvement of the performance and the useful lifetime of the organic light emitting diodes （OLEDs）.     

Synthesis,Characterization of 9, 9＇-Bianthracene and Fabrication of 9, 9＇-Bianthracene Field-Effect Transistors

We synthesize and purify 9, 9＇-bianthracene with the purity up to 96.4%. The electronic and crystallographic structures of 9, 9＇-bianthracene are studied. The results of a joint experimental investigation based on a combination of x-ray diffraction （XRD） spectra, hydrogen nuclear magnetic （HNMR） spectra, infrared absorption （FT-IR） spectra, and mass spectra （MS） of 9, 9＇-bianthracene are obtained. The uniform compact film is observed by an atomic-force microscope （AFM）. Organic field effect transistors （OFETs） with an active layer based on the synthesized 9, 9＇-bianthracene are fabricated for the first time. Its field-effect mobility is as large as 0.067 cm^2 /（V·s） and the on/off ratio is above 5 ×10^4. The result demonstrates that the oligomerization of a small semiconductor molecule is an effective method to develop high-mobility organic semiconductors.
