“…Replacing long chain oleic acid (OA) ligand of the In 2 O 3 NC by short ligand such as β‐alanine, benzoic acid, 4‐aminobenzoic acid, and 2‐aminopyridine has been investigated to decrease the interdistance; however, these NC TFTs exhibited low mobility under the NCs thin film annealing conditions in the low temperature range 150–350 °C. As for the 350 °C annealing condition, oleic acid, β‐alanine, benzoic acid, 4‐aminobenzoic acid, and 2‐aminopyridine ligands, in their In 2 O 3 NC TFT devices, showed the mobilities of 0.4, 2.2, 3.1, 2.6, and 9.5 cm 2 /V/s, respectively . This is because a part of organic ligands still survived on the NC surfaces, obstructing the charge transport through NC solids, owing to the high decomposition temperature of those organic capping ligands.…”
