Device physics of organic field-effect transistors

Conventional electronics is based on inorganic semiconductors such as silicon. These materials show excellent performance but are also brittle and expensive. Organic semiconductors on the other hand form the basis of organic electronics. Organic, carbon based, materials can be tuned using chemistry to be flexible or soluble. This makes organic semiconductors attractive for application in flexible electronics.
The basic building block of an electronics circuit is the field-effect transistor. To realize applications, a thorough understanding of this building block is essential. In this thesis the device physics of organic field-effect transistors is studied. First, we focus on the charge injection into the organic semiconductor, and the electronic transport in the transistor. Then we study the electronic transport in several recently developed device structures.
