Abstract
Contact doping was conducted by iodine in a top contact configuration in a pentacene organic thin film transistor (OTFT), to investigate its effects on contact resistance and the resulting electrical performance. Iodine doping in the pentacene film caused the change of pentacene structure, thus leading to an increase in electrical anisotropy, i.e. ratio of lateral to vertical resistivity. The two resistive components of doped pentacene film underneath the Au contacts were major contributors to the contact resistance, and a model to explain the dependence of contact resistance on iodine doping was presented. Finally, OTFTs fabricated on iodine doped source/drain contacts exhibited high mobility of 1.078cm2/Vs, two times that of OTFTs with undoped contacts, due to the low contact resistance.
