TL;DR: In this article, a method of patterning an organic device includes depositing a first organic functional layer over a device substrate to form a first intermediate structure, the first functional layer having a first function such as hole transport or electron transport.

TL;DR: This work presents a new method based on blade coating of a blend of conjugated small molecules and amorphous insulating polymers to produce OTFTs with consistently excellent performance characteristics, demonstrating that careful control over phase separation and crystallization can yield solution-printed polycrystalline organic semiconductor films with transport properties and other figures of merit on par with their single-crystal counterparts.
Abstract: Solution-printed organic semiconductors have emerged in recent years as promising contenders for roll-to-roll manufacturing of electronic and optoelectronic circuits. The stringent performance requirements for organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) in terms of carrier mobility, switching speed, turn-on voltage and uniformity over large areas require performance currently achieved by organic single-crystal devices, but these suffer from scale-up challenges. Here we present a new method based on blade coating of a blend of conjugated small molecules and amorphous insulating polymers to produce OTFTs with consistently excellent performance characteristics (carrier mobility as high as 6.7 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1), low threshold voltages of<1 V and low subthreshold swings <0.5 V dec(-1)). Our findings demonstrate that careful control over phase separation and crystallization can yield solution-printed polycrystalline organic semiconductor films with transport properties and other figures of merit on par with their single-crystal counterparts.

TL;DR: In this paper, field effect transistors (FETs) were used as p-channel accumulation-mode devices with charge carrier mobilities of up to 1cm2∕Vs combined with a low field effect threshold.
Abstract: Copper phthalocyanine (Cu–Pc) single crystals were grown by physical vapor transport and field-effect transistors (FETs) on the surface of these crystals were prepared These FETs function as p-channel accumulation-mode devices Charge carrier mobilities of up to 1cm2∕Vs combined with a low field-effect threshold were obtained These remarkable FET characteristics, along with the highly stable chemical nature of Cu–Pc, make it an attractive candidate for device applications

TL;DR: All three benzodichalcogenophenes acted as good p-type semiconductors, and particularly the selenophene analogue, 2,6-diphenylbenzo[1,2-b:4,5-b']diselenophene, showed high FET mobility of 0.17 cm2 V-1 s-1.
Abstract: 2,6-Diphenylbenzo[1,2-b:4,5-b‘]dichalcogenophenes including thiophene, selenophene, and tellurophene analogues as organic semiconductors for field-effect transistors were effectively synthesized in three steps from commercially available 1,4-dibromobenzene. All three benzodichalcogenophenes acted as good p-type semiconductors, and particularly the selenophene analogue, 2,6-diphenylbenzo[1,2-b:4,5-b‘]diselenophene, showed high FET mobility of 0.17 cm2 V-1 s-1.
