Abstract

We have fabricated vertical type organic thin film transistor using $C_{60}$ as a n-type active material to improve the problems of conventional OTFTs. In general, it can be argued that the characteristics of organic transistor were influenced by carrier mobility and density. We have used several kinds of metals as source and gate electrodes to optimize the device characteristics using $C_{60}$. In addition, we have examined the feasibility of fabrication of organic light-emitting transistor (OLET) using MEH-PPV as an emission layer.
