Flexible, high mobility short-channel organic thin film transistors and logic circuits based on 4H–21DNTT

Abstract The low mobility and large contact resistance in organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) are the two major limiting factors in the development of high-performance organic logic circuits. Here, solution-processed high-performance OTFTs and circuits are reported with a polymeric gate dielectric...
