Abstract
Provided is an organic thin film transistor comprising a polymeric layer interposed between a gate dielectric and an organic semiconductor layer. Various homopolymers, copolymers, and functional copolymers are taught for use in the polymeric layer. An integrated circuit comprising a multiplicity of thin film transistors and methods of making a thin film transistor are also provided. The organic thin film transistors of the invention typically exhibit improvement in one or more transistor properties.
Claims17
An organic thin film transistor (OTFT) comprising a substantially nonfluorinated polymeric layer having a thickness less than about 400 Å interposed between a gate dielectric and an organic semiconductor layer, wherein said polymeric layer comprises polyarylene derived from monomeric precursors, monomers, and oligomers comprising an aromatic-functional segment.
