Performance and Stability of Aerosol-Jet-Printed Electrolyte-Gated Transistors Based on Poly(3-hexylthiophene) KimSe Hyun HongKihyon LeeKeun Hyung FrisbieC. Daniel 2013 We report performance optimization and stability analysis of aerosol-jet-printed electrolyte-gated transistors (EGTs) based on the polymer semiconductor poly­(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). EGTs were optimized with respect to printed P3HT thickness and the completed device annealing temperature. EGTs with relatively thin P3HT films (∼50 nm) annealed at 120 °C have the best performance and display an unusual combination of metrics including sub-1-V operation, ON/OFF current ratios of 10<sup>6</sup>, OFF currents of <10<sup>–10</sup> A (<10<sup>–6</sup> A cm<sup>–2</sup>), saturation hole mobilities of 1.3 cm<sup>2</sup> V<sup>–1</sup> s<sup>–1</sup>, threshold voltages of −0.3 V, and subthreshold swings of 70 mV decade<sup>–1</sup>. Furthermore, optimized EGTs printed on polyester substrates are extremely robust to bias stress and repeated mechanical bending strain. Collectively, the results suggest that optimized P3HT-based EGTs are promising devices for printed, flexible electronics.
