Carrier‐Selective Traps: A New Approach for Fabricating Circuit Elements with Ambipolar Organic Semiconductors

Michael J. Ford, John G. Labram, Ming Wang, Hengbin Wang, Thuc‐Quyen Nguyen, Guillermo C. Bazan

Open publisher page 16 citations

Abstract

Ambipolar polymer semiconductors and molecular additives (acting as carrier-selective traps) can be solution processed to control ambipolar charge transport capabilities. By selecting materials with appropriate energy level offsets, unipolar n-type or p-type transport can be realized from a single ambipolar polymer. Efficient complementary inverters with high gain are fabricated using this approach.
