Abstract
We report the employment of an electrohydrodynamic-jet (EHD)-printed diketopyrrolopyrrole-based copolymer (P-29-DPPDTSE) as the active layer of fabricated organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) and circuits. The device produced at optimal conditions showed a field-effect mobility value of 0.45 cm2/(Vs). The morphologies of the printed P-29-DPPDTSE samples were determined by performing optical microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and atomic force microscopy experiments. In addition, numerical circuit simulations of the optimal printed P-29-DPPDTSE OFETs were done in order to observe how well they would perform in a high-voltage logic circuit application. The optimal printed P-29-DPPDTSE OFET showed a 0.5 kHz inverter frequency and 1.2 kHz ring oscillator frequency at a 40 V supply condition, indicating the feasibility of its use in a logic circuit application at high voltage.
