Multilayer laser printing for Organic Thin Film Transistors
Functional laser printed Organic Thin Film Transistors (OTFTs) have been achieved from multilayer substrates composed with semiconductor and electrodes. The p-type copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) was used to form the active layer. Different kinds of metallic materials were used for source and drain electrodes. Multilayer donor substrates were prepared by the successive depositions of materials by either thermal evaporation under vacuum or laser printing. The materials were transferred together in a single step onto a receiver substrate by laser pulses in the picosecond regime. The latter substrate formed the gate and the dielectric of the transistor. The results are compared with the step-by-step laser printing process, where electrodes and organic layer were successively printed from two different donor substrates. The multilayer laser printing reveals an improvement of the performances of the OTFT devices. (C) 2010 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
