Abstract
Methods and compositions to improve the performance of single-component polymer FETs is provided comprising processing a conjugated polymer in the presence of a processing additive. Also provided is a FET device fabricated with a processing additive. Such devices have increased saturation hole and/or electron mobility compared to a control FETs.
Claims22
A method of fabricating an organic semiconductor device, comprising:
- processing a single component conjugated polymer, in a presence of a processing additive and onto a substrate, wherein:
- the single component conjugated polymer processed onto the substrate is fabricated into an active region of an organic device on the substrate;
- and
- the single component conjugated polymer comprises both a donor and an acceptor or both donor and acceptor repeating units.
A composition comprising a processing additive and a single component conjugated polymer, wherein the composition has improved performance, as an active region of an organic semiconductor device, compared to the single component conjugated polymer processed without the additive, and wherein the single component conjugated polymer comprises both a donor and an acceptor or both donor and acceptor repeating units.
An organic semiconductor device, comprising an active region including a single component conjugated polymer processed using a processing additive and wherein the single component conjugated polymer comprises both a donor and an acceptor or both donor and acceptor repeating units.
