Mechanical Cycling Stability of Organic Thin Film Transistors on Shape Memory Polymers

Abstract: Organic thin film transistors on shape memory polymers are fabricated by full photolithography. Devices show high mobility (0.2 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1)) and close to zero threshold voltage (-4.5 V) when characterized as fabricated. After 1, 10, and 100 deformation cycles and in a deformed, metastable shape memory transition state, changes in mobility and V(th) are measured and indicate sustained device functionality.

“…Some of these concepts have the potential to become commercialized in the near term. Also on SMP applications, a notable development at the bulk device level is the use of SMPs as substrates for electronic components, leading to electronics with complex three dimensional shapes that are otherwise difficult to fabricate without using the shape memory properties [316][317][318][319]. Mechanical design is very important to achieve versatile shape morphing.…”

“…The flexible substrates usually are plastic platforms such as PET, polyimide (PI), polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) and polycarbonate (PC). Other flexible substrates include textile [51,52], silk [53,54], paper [55][56][57][58], metalfoil [59,60], shape-memory polymer [61][62][63] and so on. Besides, weavable and fiber-like electrode [17,64]/device configurations [65][66][67][68][69], or even substrate-free free-standing configurations [70] are also demonstrated as effective ways for obtaining flexible devices.…”
