In this work we report on a novel concept of an electrically programmable selfassembled molecular gate dielectric layer for OTFTs (see figure 1a) that can be reversibly charged and discharged and retains these digital states even when the supply voltage is removed. Due to the small thickness of the dielectric stack (app. 5.7 nm), the memory transistors operate with very small program and erase voltages of ± 2 V. Despite the extremely small dielectric thickness, the retention time is already promising (~6 hours with a read voltage of -750 mV applied continuously). The dielectric is a mixed monolayer of aliphatic and C 60 -functionalized phosphonic acid molecules (app. 2.1 nm thickness) on a patterned and plasma-oxidized aluminum gate electrode on a glass substrate. The aluminum oxide (AlO x ) contributes with a thickness of 3.6 nm to the dielectric layer stack 6 . As the aliphatic component, n-octadecylphosphonic acid 1 was chosen, which has already shown excellent insulating characteristics as the gate dielectric 6 . As the charge storage component, the C 60 -derivative 2 was synthesized to take advantage of the strong acceptor properties and reversible redox behavior of C 60 (Figure 1b and Supplementary Information SI-1) and of the self-assembly properties induced by the C 18 -aliphatic tail with phosphonic acid anchor group.Mixed self-assembled monolayers of 1 and 2 were created by a simple "one pot" solution content) have a relatively small memory ratio of 2.5 (see Section I in Figure 3b), the devices
The influence of aluminum‐doped zinc oxide (AZO) electron extraction layers modified with self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs) on inverted polymer solar cells is investigated. It is found that AZO modification with phosphonic acid‐anchored Fullerene–SAMs leads to a reduction of the series resistance, while increasing the parallel resistance. This results in an increased efficiency from 2.9 to 3.3%.
We report on p- and n-type organic self-assembled monolayer field effect transistors. On the base of quaterthiophene and fullerene units, multifunctional molecules were synthesized, which have the ability to self-assemble and provide multifunctional monolayers. The self-assembly approach, based on phosphonic acids, is very robust and allows the fabrication of functional devices even on larger areas. The p- and n-type transistor devices with only one molecular active layer were demonstrated for transistor channel lengths up to 10 μm. The monolayer composition is proven by electrical experiments and by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy, XPS, and AFM experiments. Because of the molecular design and the contribution of isolating alkyl chains to the hybrid dielectric, our devices operate at low supply voltages (-4 V to +4 V), which is a key requirement for practical use and simplifies the integration in standard applications. The monolayer devices operate in ambient air and show hole and electron mobilities of 10(-5) cm(2)/(V s) and 10(-4) cm(2)/(V s) respectively. In particular the n-type operation of self-assembled monolayer transistors has not been reported before. Hereby, structure-property relations of the SAMs have been studied. Furthermore an approach to protect the sensitive C(60) from immediate degradation within the molecular design is provided.
