Electron Mobility Exceeding 10 cm2 V−1 s−1 and Band‐Like Charge Transport in Solution‐Processed n‐Channel Organic Thin‐Film Transistors

Abstract

Solution-processed n-channel organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) that exhibit a field-effect mobility as high as 11 cm² V⁻¹ s⁻¹ at room temperature and a band-like temperature dependence of electron mobility are reported. By comparison of solution-processed OTFTs with vacuum-deposited OTFTs of the same organic semiconductor, it is found that grain boundaries are a key factor inhibiting band-like charge transport.
