Egbert Zojer • Peter Pacher • Harald Etschmaier Co-Workers
Part I: Charge transport models • Comparison to inorganic semiconductors • Drude model • Hopping transport models • Part II: Building and analyzing FETs • Building process • temperature dependend Measurements • Part III: Parameter extraction and first results • Parameter extraction • Mobility vs. temperature Outline
Part I: Charge carrier transport models. overview based on reviews from Gilles Horowitz
(Molecular) Crystal Comparison Covalent Metallic Gilles Horowitz
sp2 hybridization of carbon • 3 σ bonds from (2s, 2px, 2py) • 1 π bond from 2pz Conjugated organic materials
free moving carriers, acceleration by external field • scattering at phonons, impurieties Simple band transport: Drude model
Simple band transport: Drude model • Temperature dependence of vth • Temperature dependence of scattering process: mean free path between phonons, charged impurities W. Warta
Polarization by one single charge • dressed (by π- electros) charge Polaron transport Gilles Horowitz residence time bandwidth el. polarization time bandgap
Polaron transport Gilles Horowitz Silinish E.A, Capek V.
Charge modulated spectroscopy Polaron transport Silinish E.A, Capek V. Peter J. Brown Eg
useful for disordered materials (polymers) • Bässler's model • transport by hopping between localized states • (Polarisation) Energy of the states fluctuates • DOS is described by gausian distribution of variance σ • charge transport: random walk Hopping (polaron) Transport energy difference intersite distance
Perculation theory by Vissenberg & Matters • Variable range hopping among exponential DOS • Conduction through 'resistor network': infinite cluster with the highest conductivity is relevant • Gate voltage (charge density) dependence Hopping (polaron) Transport
300 K 180 K 117 K Hopping (polaron) Transport Pentacene A. R. Brown
Assumptions • carriers arriving at trap -> capture • release is thermaly activated • 2 sorts of carriers Multiple trapping & thermal release Gilles Horowitz
Gate Voltage (charge carrier density) dependence • Upon aplied Vg a potential Vs develops at insulator-semiconductor interface • shift of EF towards EC • trapped carrier release becomes easier Multiple trapping & thermal release
Gate Voltage (charge carrier density) dependence Multiple trapping & thermal release
Multiple trapping & thermal release • Alternative approach • effective mobility vs. effective charge density • Hall-effect measurements
Multiple trapping & thermal release • Hall-effect results on rubrene single crystal Menard et al Podzorov, Menard, Rogers, Gershenson

some differences to conventional OFETs • can potentially operate in electron and hole accumulation mode OFET
basic OFET operation • related to a capacitor OFET
