摘要: Abstract We investigated the air stabilities of threshold voltages ( V th ) on gate bias stress in pentacene thin-film transistors (TFTs) with a hydroxyl-free and amorphous fluoropolymer as insulators. The 40-nm-thick thin films spin-coated had excellent electrical insulating properties, TFTs exhibited negligible current hysteresis, low leakage current, field-effect mobility 0.45 cm 2 /Vs an on/off ratio 3 × 10 7 when it was operated at −20 V ambient air. After 10 4  s, small shift below 1.1 V obtained despite non-passivation layer. have discussed that stability attributed to insulator surface without hydroxyl groups.
