SAM is needed to reduce the leakage current through the gate and dielectric. Some of the SAMs would require relatively long preparation time [12][13][14] and usually the functional head groups of SAMs is dielectric specifi c. It is challenging to develop a universal SAMs suitable for different dielectric insulators. More importantly, the SAM also modifi es the surface energy of the dielectric and affects the crystallinity of the organic semiconductors. It is necessary to employ a suitable SAM to achieve high crystallility and carrier mobility in the OFETs. [ 14 ] To date, it is still a great challenge in the research fi eld to develop a universal high-k material which does not require SAM, and can be processed at moderate temperature, ambient air environment, and adjustable surface energy for both thermal evaporation and solution processing of organic semiconductors.To address these challenges, we recently reported a high-k (ε r = 11) barium strontium titanate (BST) thin fi lm treated by UV-Ozone and deposited by multi-layer spin coating deposition. [ 15 ] The high-k fi lms are spin coated in ambient air and heated to a temperature of around 85 °C during the UV-Ozone process. The UV emits at 184.9 nm and 253.7 nm under ambient air conditions converting oxygen into reactive O species, which then diffuse into the amorphous BST thin fi lm and reacts with the oxygen vacancies to form lattice oxygen. The reactive oxygen also removes the organic impurities in the fi lm, which results in a high quality amorphous BST thin fi lm with better stoichiometry. [ 16 ] The compatibility with ambient air environment, low processing temperature, and no SAM requirement suggest the BST dielectric has extremely high potentials to be applied in developing low cost OFETs on plastic fl exible substrates and have advantages over other polymers and inorganic materials. In the current study, we investigate the surface energy modifi cation effect by varying the storage environment and time of the BST thin fi lm in order to achieve a universal high-k material for OFET fabrications without using SAM. Based on the contact angle measurements, we calculated the surface energy and the wetting envelope of the BST high-k dielectric stored under different fi ve different conditions. The fresh BST with hydrophilic surface is suitable for spin coating or drop casting of organic semiconductor deposition where surface wetting is needed for the alignment of organic molecules. On the other hand, the BST thin fi lms stored under different conditions show different surface energy, which will directly affect the crystallinity of the organic semiconductors. On the current BST high-k dielectric without SAM and further optimization, dinaphtho[2,3-b:2′,3′-f ] thieno[3,2-b] thiophene (DNTT) and 6,13-Bis (triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS-pentacene) organic transistors with average mobility of 1.51 cm 2 V −1 s −1 and 0.11 cm 2 V −1 s −1 are formed by thermal evaporation and droplet-pinned crystallization (DPC) method (one of the solution processing methods...
