Abstract

We investigate the effect of processing temperature of gate insulator and optical anisotropy on organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs). The insulator film which was processed lower temperature than solvent boiling temperature can lead more aligned pentacne molecules compare to higher processed insulator film. It finally gives rise to the big increase of carrier mobility in OTFTs, although there are little difference at the seriously affecting properties to device performance, for example roughness of gate insulator film.
