Organic Field-Effect Transistors Based on 3'-Flouro-2,2',6,6'-Tetraphenyl-4,4'-Dipyranylidene

摘要

In this work, 3'-flouro-2,2',6,6'-tetraphenyl-4,4'-dipyranylidene (3FDP) was originally synthesized and investigated with density functional theory (DFT) calculations, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) in comparison with 2,2',6,6'-tetraphenyl-4,4'-dipyranylidene (DP) and 4'-flouro-2,2',6,6'-tetraphenyl-4,4'-dipyranylidene (4FDP). 3FDP-based organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) were fabricated with bottom contact configuration on bare SiO_2/Si substrate, 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) and octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) treated substrate, respectively. The HMDS-treated device showed highest mobility of 4 × 10~(-4) cm~2 V~(-1) s~(-1), on/off ratio of 4 × 10~3 and threshold voltage of -10 V. Finally, vacuum deposited 3FDP films morphology was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses and the results showed higher crystallinity of HMDS-treated 3FDP film compared to the OTS-treated film, leading to a better FET performance.
