High-stability ultrathin spin-on benzocyclobutene gate dielectric for polymer field-effect transistors

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Using a thermal-crosslinkable siloxane bisbenzocyclobutene, high quality spin-on (solutionprocessable) gate dielectric layers as thin as 50 nm have been fabricated over the semiconductor layer for polymer field-effect transistors. This was demonstrated on a poly(9,9-dialkylfluorene-alt-triarylamine) as p-channel semiconductor, with a surfactantion-exchanged poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-polystyrenesulfonate complex as top-gate electrode. The devices operate at a low voltage with a field-effect mobility of few 10−4 cm2/Vs, and can be continuously operated at 120 °C.
