Recent progress in organic field-effect transistor-based integrated circuits

Organic integrated circuits are undergoing rapid development with the extensive research on organic semiconducting materials and the performance improvement of organic field-effect transistors. Organic integrated circuits not only cover all the major circuit types, their complexity, degree of integration, and performance have also been improved in recent years. In this review, recent advances in the design and fabrication of integrated circuits based on organic field-effect transistors are reported. The circuits are categorized into digital and analog, which are discussed in detail centering on the structure, fabrication process, and performance. In addition, progress in the modeling and simulation of organic integrated circuits are discussed as well, as they are key issues for the future development of organic electronics.     

The Emergence of Organic Single‐Crystal Electronics

Organic semiconducting single crystals are perfect for both fundamental and application‐oriented research due to the advantages of free grain boundaries, few defects, and minimal traps and impurities, as well as their low‐temperature processability, high flexibility, and low cost. Carrier mobilities of greater than 10 cm² V^?1 s^?1 in some organic single crystals indicate a promising application in electronic devices. The progress made, including the molecular structures and fabrication technologies of organic single crystals, is introduced and organic single‐crystal electronic devices, including field‐effect transistors, phototransistors, p‐n heterojunctions, and circuits, are summarized. Organic two‐dimensional single crystals, cocrystals, and large single crystals, together with some potential applications, are introduced.

Corannulene derivatives for organic electronics: From molecular engineering to applications

This paper intends to provide an overview for using corannulene derivatives in organic electronics such as organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), organic solar cells (OSCs), and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). We highlight the rational design strategies, tuning molecular orbital energy levels and arrangement in single crystals of corannulenes. The topological structure and properties of corannulene make it a unique candidate for organic electronics.     

Use of laser drilling in the manufacture of organic inverter circuits

Inverter circuits have been made by connecting two high-quality pentacene field-effect transistors. A uniform and pinhole-free 900 nm thick polyimide gate-insulating layer was formed on a flexible polyimide film with gold gate electrodes and partially removed by using a CO₂ laser drilling machine to make via holes and contact holes. Subsequent evaporation of the gold layer results in good electrical connection with a gold gate layer underneath the gate-insulating layer. By optimization of the settings of the CO₂ laser drilling machine, contact resistance can be reduced to as low as 3 Ω for 180 μm square electrodes. No degradation of the transport properties of the organic transistors was observed after the laser-drilling process. This study demonstrates the feasibility of using the laser drilling process for implementation of organic transistors in integrated circuits on flexible polymer films.     

Molecular design of star-shaped benzotrithiophene materials for organic electronics

Progresses in the design and application of conjugated small molecules, oligomers and polymers have empowered rapid development of organic electronic technology as an alternative to conventional devices. Among the numerous organic electronic materials, benzotrithiophene (BTT)-based oligomers and polymers have recently come in the limelight demonstrating great potential in organic electronics as high performance photovoltaic devices, field-effect transistors, electrochromic materials, high-area capacitors and charge carrier discotic liquid crystals. In this digest, we propose an overview of the organic electronic materials based on BTT isomers, highlighting the structure-performance relationship. The results obtained so far clearly indicate that the BTT isomers are among the most promising building blocks for the development π-extended materials for optoelectronic applications in the near future.     

High-mobility field-effect transistors from large-area solution-grown aligned C60 single crystals

Field-effect transistors based on single crystals of organic semiconductors have the highest reported charge carrier mobility among organic materials, demonstrating great potential of organic semiconductors for electronic applications. However, single-crystal devices are difficult to fabricate. One of the biggest challenges is to prepare dense arrays of single crystals over large-area substrates with controlled alignment. Here, we describe a solution processing method to grow large arrays of aligned C(60) single crystals. Our well-aligned C(60) single-crystal needles and ribbons show electron mobility as high as 11 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1) (average mobility: 5.2 ± 2.1 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1) from needles; 3.0 ± 0.87 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1) from ribbons). This observed mobility is ~8-fold higher than the maximum reported mobility for solution-grown n-channel organic materials (1.5 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1)) and is ~2-fold higher than the highest mobility of any n-channel organic material (~6 cm(2)V(-1)s(-1)). Furthermore, our deposition method is scalable to a 100 mm wafer substrate, with around 50% of the wafer surface covered by aligned crystals. Hence, our method facilitates the fabrication of large amounts of high-quality semiconductor crystals for fundamental studies, and with substantial improvement on the surface coverage of crystals, this method might be suitable for large-area applications based on single crystals of organic semiconductors.     

Hierarchical Integration of Organic Core/Shell Microwires for Advanced Photonics

The combination of multiple components or structures into integrated micro/nanostructures for practical application has been pursued for many years. Herein, a series of hierarchical organic microwires with branch, core/shell (C/S), and branch C/S structures are successfully constructed based on organic charge transfer (CT) cocrystals with structural similarity and physicochemical tunability. By regulating the intermolecular CT interaction, single microwires and branch microstructures can be integrated into the C/S and branch C/S structures, respectively. Significantly, the integrated branch C/S microwires, with multicolor waveguide behavior and branch structure multichannel waveguide output characteristics, can function as an optical logic gate with multiple encoding features. This work provides useful insights for creating completely new types of organic microstructures for integrated optoelectronics.     

Glass microchip with three-dimensional microchannel network for 2 x 2 parallel synthesis

An integrated multireactor system for 2 x 2 parallel organic synthesis has been developed on a single glass microchip. Three-dimensional channel circuits in the chip were fabricated by laminating three glass plate layers. The fabrication method is a straightforward extension of the conventional one, and topological equivalence for any three-dimensional circuits can be constructed easily with it. 2 x 2 phase-transfer amide formation reactions, which constitute a simple model for combinatorial synthesis, were successfully carried out on the microchip, and the integrity of the three-dimensional circuits was confirmed. Combinatorial chemistry with multi-microreactors, in conjunction with a high-throughput screening method based on micro-TAS technologies, is expected to provide an efficient tool for drug discovery.     

Chemical and structural effects on the electronic transport in organic single crystals

Effects induced by chemical and structural inhomogeneities on the electronic transport in organic crystals with the focus on highly-ordered polyacenes are discussed in this paper. The material class chosen is of great importance as polyacenes are widely studied with perspectives on applications in thin film devices. As will be shown, the charge carrier mobility in these long-range ordered molecular systems is limited by chemical impurities rather than by structural inhomogeneities. Time-of-flight spectroscopy on polyacenes purified by zone-refinement does not only show coherent carrier movement for holes but also for electrons, which is rarely observed for compounds that can be purified by sublimation only. Finally, we will present a direct comparison between the chemical species and their amount on the surface and in the volume of tetracene crystals. The significantly higher impurity concentration at the surfaces is relevant for the mobility estimated by field-effect transistor (FET) studies on single crystals in planar-geometry.
