Influence of diffusion on space-charge-limited current measurements in organic semiconductors
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2013, 4, 180–188, doi:10.3762/bjnano.4.18
- reasonably accurate mobility values. Keywords: current–voltage curves; electron-only device; drift–diffusion; mobility; simulation; traps; Introduction A frequently used method to analyze charge carrier transport in organic semiconductors is based on space-charge-limited current measurements performed on
- Mott–Gurney law [18][19] Here ε0 is the vacuum permittivity and εr is the relative permittivity. The Mott–Gurney law is frequently used to determine the mobility of organic semiconductors used for light emitting diodes and solar cells. However, its derivation uses three assumptions that are often not
- applicable in organic semiconductors, namely that the device is trap-free, that diffusion is negligible and that the electric field at the injecting contact is zero. All three assumptions are in general not correct, in particular the assumption that there are no charged defects in organic semiconductors [20
STM study on the self-assembly of oligothiophene-based organic semiconductors
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2011, 2, 802–808, doi:10.3762/bjnano.2.88
- transport properties in the solid state, which allow their application in a variety of organic-electronic devices [1]. Among others, organic semiconductors based on thiophenes are very promising materials in the field, because of their superior stability and the possibility to chemically functionalize them
- -molecule organic devices have restored huge interest in structurally well-defined and therefore monodisperse, crystalline oligomers [8]. The method of choice to investigate the ordering of organic semiconductors adsorbed on flat metallic surfaces, at the desired molecular level in the subnanometer range
Optical properties of fully conjugated cyclo[n]thiophenes – An experimental and theoretical approach
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2011, 2, 720–726, doi:10.3762/bjnano.2.78
- organic field-effect transistors, organic solar cells, and sensors [1][2][3][4]. Typically, such π-conjugated systems comprise extended linear one-dimensional (1D) structures showing interesting optoelectronic properties. In the solid state they represent organic semiconductors, whereas by doping with
- novel class of organic semiconductors without end-effects exhibiting fascinating optical [17][18][19][20] and self-assembling properties [21][22][23]. In a statistical macrocyclization approach under high-dilution conditions, the first cyclic representatives C12T, C16T, and C18T were prepared starting
Terthiophene on Au(111): A scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy study
Beilstein J. Nanotechnol. 2011, 2, 561–568, doi:10.3762/bjnano.2.60
- indicating an adsorption-induced dimensionality transition of the involved tunneling processes. Keywords: Au(111); electronic density of states; STM; STS; terthiophene; Introduction Because of their expedient properties and their diversity, oligo- and polythiophenes are among the most investigated organic
