USING PERCOLATIVE CRYSTALLINE 0.3 CUO/PVDF NANOCOMPOSITE GATE DIELECTRIC FOR FABRICATING HIGH-EFFECT MOBILITY THIN FILM TRANSISTOR OPERATING AT LOW VOLTAGE

Abstract

Thin-film transistor (TFT) with various layers of crystalline Poly-vinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/CuO percolative nanocomposites based on Anthracene as a gate dielectric insulator have been fabricated. A device with excellent electrical characteristics at low operating voltages (<1V) has been designed. Different layers (L) of the film were also prepared to achieve the best optimization of ideal gate insulator with various static dielectric constants (εr). Capacitance density, leakage current at 1V gate voltage and electrical characteristics of OFETs with a single and multi layer films have been investigated. This device was showed highest field effect mobility of 2.27 cm2/Vs, a threshold voltage of -1.6V, an exceptionally low sub threshold slope of 380 mV/decade and an on/off ratio of 106. Such a High-ε three layered (3L) PVDF/CuO gate dielectric appears to be highly promising candidates for organic non-volatile memory, sensor and field-effect transistors (FETs).
