A solid-state electrochemical transistor (ECT) was fabricated using a -conjugated polymer Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) film, which was constructed from poly(N-dodecylacrylamide) (pDDA) and regioregular-poly(3-hexylthiophene) (RR-PHT) mixture. The -conjugated polymer LB film was used as a channel layer and poly(ethylene oxide):LiClO 4 was used as a solid electrolyte. The ECT showed an on/off ratio of 2:3 Â 10 3 and a mobility of 7:7 Â 10 À2 cm 2 V À1 s À1 at a low gate voltage (V G ¼ À2:0 V) with a low charge consumption (1:8 Â 10 À9 mol of e À1 cm À2 ). Moreover, a clear saturation behavior was observed in the ECT. The saturation behavior was derived from the partial dedoping of RR-PHT located at the drain electrode because of the long channel length and low conductivity of the LB film. The low operation voltage with a clear saturation behavior is favorable for applying the ECT to the fabrication of a disposable sensor. #
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.
