在冯·诺依曼架构陷入瓶颈的时代背景下,受生物神经启发而演化的人工突触器件获得了广泛关注,加速了人们迈向人工智能时代的脚步。本文通过在P型有机薄膜晶体管(OTFT)绝缘层SiO2表面进行等离子处理,探究了界面处理引入羟基对OTFT突触性能的影响。具体对绝缘层不同等离子处理时长的OTFT进行了突触行为的模拟和对比,包括兴奋性后突触后电流(EPSC)、双脉冲易化(PPF)、长程可塑性(LTP)等。突触特性的产生是由于等离子处理给半导体层/绝缘层界面引入的羟基对电子进行了捕获。而随着等离子处理时间的增加,绝缘层表面更多的羟基使得OTFT表现出更强的记忆和保持能力、更高的线性度,更有利于其在类脑学习、神经计算等方面的应用。

Organic thin-film field-effect transistors with MoO3/Al electrode and OTS/SiO2 bilayer gate insulator

An organic thin-film transistor (OTFTs) having OTS/SiO₂ bilayer gate insulator and MoO₃/Al electrode configuration between gate insulator and source–drain (S–D) electrodes has been investigated. Thermally grown SiO₂ layer is used as the OTFT gate dielectric and copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) for an active layer. We have found that using silane coupling agents, octadecyltrichlorosilane (OTS) on SiO₂, surface energy of SiO₂ gate dielectric is reduced; consequently, the device performance has been improved significantly. This OTS/SiO₂ bilayer gate insulator configuration increases the field-effect mobility, reduces the threshold voltage and improves the on/off ratios simultaneously. The device with MoO₃/Al electrode has similar source–drain current (I_DS) compared to the device with Au electrode at same gate voltage. Our results indicate that using double-layer of insulator and modified electrode is an effective way to improve OTFT performance.

The results demonstrated that using inorganic/organic compound insulator as the gate dielectric layer is an effective method to fabricate OTFTs with improved electric characteristics and decreased leakage current. Electrical parameters of carrier mobility and on/off ratio were calculated. OTFT based on Si substrate with a field-effect mobility of 4.0 × 10-3cm2/Vs and on/off ratio of 104 was obtained.

The SiO₂/SiN_x/SiO₂ composite insulation layer was prepared by magnetron sputtering.Compared with the same thickness of a SiO₂ insulation layer device,the SiO₂/SiN_x/SiO₂ composite insulation layer is an effective method of fabricating OTFT with improved electric characteristics and decreased leakage current.Electrical parameters such as carrier mobility by field effect measurement have been calculated.The performances of different insulating layer devices have been studied,and the results demonstrate that when the insulation layer thickness increases,the off-state current decreases.     

Flexible AM OLED panel driven by bottom-contact OTFTs

Active matrix organic-light-emitting-diode (AM OLED) panels, driven by organic thin-film transistors (OTFT), have been successfully fabricated on a flexible plastic substrate. The pixel circuit consists of two bottom-contact pentacene OTFTs working as switching and driving transistors. The panel has 16 /spl times/ 16 pixels, each of which have an OLED using a phosphorescent material with an emission efficiency of 30 cd/A. A tantalum oxide (Ta/sub 2/O/sub 5/) film with a dielectric constant of 24, prepared by the anodization of Tantalum (Ta), was used as the gate insulator of the OTFTs. The passivation layer on the OTFTs was formed by a layer of silicon dioxide (SiO/sub 2/) and two layers of polyvinyl alcohol. Using OTFTs with a Ta/sub 2/O/sub 5/ gate insulator, the authors have realized a flexible active matrix OLED panel driven with a low voltage of -12 V.
