Here, we describe a novel method for electrode deposition onto a free-standing film of conjugated polymer, the peeling-off transfer technique, proposed by us. This method enables not only making double-sided electrodes structures without film flipping, but also simplifying the positioning between upper and lower electrodes. The electrodes in Schottky diodes from poly(S-hexylthiophene) made through this technique show essentially identical characteristics to those made through direct vacuum evaporation. Although we checked this idea with conducting polymer here, this technique may be applicable to any other semiconducting materials with appropriate surface and mechanical properties.
