High-performance organic thin-film transistor by using LaNbO as gate dielectric

Abstract: Pentacene organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) using La x Nb (1Àx) O y as gate dielectric with different La contents (x ¼ 0.347, 0.648) have been fabricated and compared with those using Nb oxide or La oxide. The OTFT with La 0.648 Nb 0.352 O y as gate dielectric can achieve a high carrier mobility of 1.14 cm 2 V À1 s À1 (about 1000 times and 2 times those of the devices using Nb oxide and La oxide, respectively), and has negligible hysteresis of À0.130 V, small sub-threshold swing of 0.280 V/ dec, and low th… Show more

“…With increasing Nb content from sample A to sample C, the entire Nd 3 d curve firstly shifts to lower binding energy due to less Nd‐OH bonds (with higher binding energy than Nd‐O bond) in the dielectric, thus further supporting the hygroscopicity suppression by the Nb incorporation. On the other hand, Nb has higher electronegativity (1.59) than Nd (1.14) and so is more likely to generate oxygen vacancies, which, widely accepted as positively charged, can increase the binding energy of an electron in a nearby atom . This can be demonstrated by sample D with further increase in Nb content, whose curve moves back to higher binding energy.…”

“…The surface roughness of pure Nd 2 O 3 is the largest among the films. This is caused by the formation of hydroxide (‐OH) in the dielectric oxide due to the high hygroscopicity of Nd oxide, resulting in non‐uniform expansion of the oxide film . After the Nb incorporation, the dielectric roughness is greatly reduced for samples B–D as the hygroscopicity of Nd oxide is suppressed by the presence of Nb.…”
