Investigations of Temperature and Optical Illumination on Organic Thin Film Transistors for AMLCD Applications

In this work, we have investigated the effects of temperature and optical illumination on organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) with indium-tin-oxide electrode.
Experimental results have shown that the turn-on characteristics of the pentacene OTFT with ITO as source/drain electrodes is dependent on environmental temperatures. In addition, it has been found the pentacene OTFT is one kind of photo-sensitive devices. External stimulations can change the I-V characteristics significantly. For example, our pentacene OTFT show a shift of the onset and threshold voltage with illumination, which recovers slowly in the dark. Therefore, except for the application of switch devices, petacene OTFT exhibits a potential application for image sensors.
