Abstract:

A kind of organic thin.film transistor(OTFT)was fabricated withTa2O5as the gate insulator and poly(2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene-vinylene)(MEH-PPV)as the active material.The influence of therm al treatment of theTa2O5 gate insulator in H2,atmosphere on the perform ance of OTFT was then discussed,and the re.asons for the perform ance improvement of OTFT were analyzed.The results show that,after the therm al treat-ment of the Ta2O5gate insulator in H2 atmosphere,the field effect mobility of MEH-PPV can be greatly enhanced from 1.24×10-5 cm2 /(V·S)to 2.15×10-4cm 2/(V·S),while the threshold voltage decreases.

Key words: organic transistor, tantalum oxide, thermal treatment in H2 atmosphere
