Green solvent-processed complementary-like inverters based on ambipolar organic thin-film transistors

Organic multilevel (opto)electronic memories towards neuromorphic applications

“…In particular nanomaterials can be easily added to an organic solution to produce organic/inorganic floating-gate memories. Furthermore, the naturally occurring vertical phase segregation of compounds upon solution deposition of certain blends that has been extensively studied in organic films [210][211][212][213] can be employed to reduce the fabrication complexity and allow the deposition of specific elements at specific interfaces. Specifically, careful engineering of the interface allowed by organic deposition was employed to reliably trap charges.…”

Solution-processed ambipolar organic thin-film transistors and inverters in a single substrate through self-assembled monolayer-treated electrodes

“…Ambipolar organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) are becoming increasingly important in the development of single-component organic logic circuits, light-emitting transistors, and other electronic devices. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] In addition, they are excellent tools for understanding the charge carrier (both hole and electron) transport processes in a variety of organic semiconductors. 8 Ambipolar OTFTs can be realised by various approaches, such as using two discrete layers of electron-and hole-transporting semiconducting materials stacked one over the other, using a single layer formed by the blend of two different (electron-and hole-transporting) organic semiconductors, and utilisation of ambipolar organic semiconductors with high electron and hole mobilities.…”

High-performing organic electronics using terpene green solvents from renewable feedstocks

“…However, the carbon emissions of halogenated solvents, in addition to their toxicological effects such as reproductive hazards and cancer, pose a serious risk to human safety and the environment, rendering them unsustainable for high-throughput fabrication of solution-based electronic devices 6,7 . Recent strategies to transition towards environmentally friendly solvents require either the modification of OSC sidechains to improve solubility [8][9][10] , the utilization of hydrocarbon solvents along with additives like diphenyl ether to boost performance [11][12][13] or the calculation of Hansen solubility parameters (HSP) to methodical filter potential solvent candidates for processing [14][15][16][17] . Yet, these strategies were limited to five standard hydrocarbon-based solvents: xylene, toluene, trimethylbenzene, o-methylanisole and tetrahydrofuran.…”
