The discovery of (semi) conducting polymers opened a route to the fabrication of microelectronics by printing. We designed structural and electrical properties of printed polymeric thin films and multilayers to set up field-effect transistors. The polymeric transistors are fully logic capable as is proven by persistent operation of an integrated ring-oscillator circuit. Solution processing of the polymers in printing is completely done under ambient conditions resulting in stable operation of the printed transistors and microcircuits.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
