Band‐Like Electron Transport in Organic Transistors and Implication of the Molecular Structure for Performance Optimization

Abstract

The Hall effect and an increase of field-effect mobility with decreasing temperature is observerd in n-channel single-crystal organic field-effect transistors (OFETs). A quantitative analysis of these findings, together with results on different p-channel transistors, indicate the importance of the semiconductor molecular polarizability and the structure of the charge transport layers in the crystal for the observation of band-like transport in OFETs.
