Abstract

In this letter, the performance characteristics of top-gate and dual-gate thin-film transistors (TFTs) with active semiconductor layers consisting of diketopyrrolopyrrole-naphthalene copolymer are described. Optimized top-gate TFTs possess mobilities of up to 1 cm 2/ V   s with low contact resistance and reduced hysteresis in air. Dual-gate devices possess higher drive currents as well as improved subthreshold and above threshold characteristics compared to single-gate devices. We also describe the reasons that dual-gate devices result in improved performance. The good stability of this polymer combined with their promising electrical properties make this material a very promising semiconductor for printable electronics.
