All-organic thin-film transistors made of poly(3-butylthiophene) semiconducting and various polymeric insulating layers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors have fabricated fully patterned all-organic thin-film transistors with a variety of organic polymer insulators, and they have built top-gate structures with gates printed on top of the gate dielectric layer.

Polythiophene field‐effect transistor with polypyrrole worked as source and drain electrodes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors attributed the depression of the channel current at no gate bias to the barrier against hole transport formed inside the polythiophene layer and near the interface with polypyrrole.

Barrier-limited mobility in thin semiconductor films

TL;DR: In this article, the simple Boltzmann expression for an intercrystalline potential barrier can be applied to low gap non-parabolic band materials, with certain limitations, and experimental results on InSb thin films are presented, in support of this view.

Photoconductivity in thin films of lead telluride

Mino Green, +1 more
- 20 Mar 1973 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the photoconductivity of 1 μm lead telluride films with 100 ns light pulses and showed that the results were quantitatively consistent with a lowering of intergranular potential barriers which exist in oxygen-exposed films.
