Method for producing organic electronic devices on deposited dielectric materials

摘要

A deposited dielectric (e.g., PECVD silicon nitride) formed on an inexpensive glass or plastic foil substrate is modified to facilitate the formation of high mobility organic semiconductor films. In one embodiment, the dielectric is plasma treated using nitrogen or argon gas to reduce the surface roughness of the dielectric layer below 5 nm (peak-to-valley). An organic semiconductor film (e.g., pentacene) grown on the modified dielectric exhibits high mobility and large polycrystalline grain sizes.
