Organic transistors • Organic tags are the only way of under-1-cent RFID tags Cgd0 Cgs0
Good and Bad things Good things: • No standard structures, L=5mm~10nm, W=several 100um~10mm, large overlap capacitance • No standard semiconductor materials, Pentacene, P3HT, CuPc • No Standard gate dielectric, K=2 to 16 • No control of parameters, lots of different Vt reported • fabrication limitation: Can’t shrink devices, typical number L=2µm, W=50µm for inkjet printing • Flexible fabrication: soluble materials can be printed on all kinds of material • Transparent, important for display, may get e-paper, e-poster Bad things:
AIM-spice Model • Good enough
Inverter • Complementary Static inverter CMOS Inverter Organic Inverter
Inverter Pseudo-PMOS Depletion Load PMOS
Ring Oscillator Wp/Wn=1/1, Vdd=40V, Freq=394.42KHz,P=490uW • Using Complementary inverter Wp/Wn=1/15, Vdd=40V, Freq=70.741KHz, P=81uW Wp/Wn=1/1, Vdd=14.3V, Freq=125.36KHz, P=15.7uW
Ring Oscillator Depletion Load PMOS Pseudo-PMOS
NAND and NOR Complementary NAND Complementary NOR
NAND and NOR DCVSL
Memory NOR ROM • Mainly use P-type transistor in the ROM to improve the performance. OR ROM
Decoder Decoder W=min Decoder Wp/Wn=2/15 Decoder + OR ROM
Conclusion • Using current organic transistor technology, it is possible to run the RFID at 125KHz. • Due to the big size of the device, the power consumption is much bigger than the regular CMOS circuit. This severely reduces the working distance of the organic RFID.
