The fabricated devices stored for ten hours under ambient atmospheric conditions exhibit superior performance compared with the as-prepared devices. The field-effect mobility increases from 0. 012 to 0.03 cm^2 V^-1 s^-1, and the threshold voltage downshifts from -14 to -9 V. The on/off current ratios are close to the order of 10^4. The improved performance of the stored devices is attributed to the formation of thin Cu oxide at the Cu electrodes/organic interfaces. These results suggest a simple and available way to optimize device properties and to reduce fabrication cost for OFETs.展开更多

Cu and Al are selected as the cathode and the anode, respectively. C60 is used as the organic layer and LiF as the buffer layer inserted between the cathode and C60. After the annealing process, Schottky contact is well formed at the Al/C60 interface and Ohmic contact is formed at the (Cu/LiF)/C60 interface. The current density-voltage (J-V) measurements of the diodes present nonlinear behavior. As a result, the rectification ratio reaches 1×03. The characteristics of the diodes have been analyzed using the energy band diagram. The values of Schottky barrier height ΦB, ideality factor n and reverse saturation current density Js are extracted according to the standard thermionic emission model.展开更多
