Abstract

We report the characteristics of the organic field effect transistor (OFET) after electrical and time stress. Aluminum oxide (Al2O3) was used as a gate dielectric layer. The surface of the gate oxide layer was treated with hydrogen (H2) and nitrogen (N2) mixed gas to minimize the dangling bond at the interface layer of gate oxide. According to the two stress parameters of electrical and time stress, threshold voltage shift was observed. In particular, the mobility and subthreshold swing of OFET were significantly decreased due to hole carrier localization and degradation of the channel layer between gate oxide and pentacene by electrical stress. Electrical stress is a more critical factor in the degradation of mobility than time stress caused by H2O and O2 in the air.
