Light-Stimulated Synaptic Transistors Fabricated by a Facile Solution Process Based on Inorganic Perovskite Quantum Dots and Organic Semiconductors
摘要： Implementation of artificial intelligent systems with light-stimulated synaptic emulators may enhance computational speed by providing devices with high bandwidth, low power computation requirements, and low crosstalk. One of the key challenges is to develop light-stimulated devices that can response to light signals in a neuron-/synapse-like fashion. A simple and effective solution process to fabricate light-stimulated synaptic transistors (LSSTs) based on inorganic halide perovskite quantum dots (IHP QDs) and organic semiconductors (OSCs) is reported. Blending IHP QDs and OSCs not only improves the charge separation efficiency of the photoexcited charges, but also induces delayed decay of the photocurrent in the IHP QDs/OSCs hybrid film. The enhanced charge separation efficiency results in high photoresponsivity, while the induced delayed decay of the photocurrent is critical to achieving light-stimulating devices with a memory effect, which are important for achieving high synaptic performance. The LSSTs can respond to light signals in a highly neuron-/synapse-like fashion. Both short-term and long-term synaptic behaviors have been realized, which may lay the foundation for the future implementation of artificial intelligent systems that are enabled by light signals. More significantly, LSSTs are fabricated by a facile solution process which can be easily applied to large-scale samples.

Effect of exciton diffusion on the triplet-triplet annihilation rate in organic semiconductor host-guest systems
摘要： We study the contribution of triplet exciton diffusion to the efficiency loss resulting from F?rster-type triplet-triplet annihilation (TTA) in organic phosphorescent semiconductor host-guest systems, using kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations. Our study focusses on diffusion due to F?rster-type guest-guest transfer, but includes also a comparison with simulation results for the case of Dexter-type guest-guest transfer. The simulations are carried out for a wide range of F?rster radii, and for guest concentrations up to 100 mol%, with the purpose to support analyses of time-resolved photoluminescence experiments probing TTA. We find that the relative contribution of diffusion to the TTA-induced efficiency loss may be deduced quite accurately from a quantitative experimental measure for the shape of the time-dependent photoluminescence intensity, the so-called r ratio. For small guest concentrations and F?rster radii that are most relevant to organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), the diffusion contribution is in general quite small. Under these weak-diffusion conditions, the absolute diffusion contribution to the TTA-induced efficiency loss can be understood quantitatively using a capture radius formalism. The effective guest-guest diffusion coefficient that follows from the TTA simulations, using the capture radius formalism, agrees well with the diffusion coefficient that follows from direct KMC diffusion simulations. The simulations reveal that the diffusion coefficient is strongly affected by the randomness of the distribution of guest molecule locations.

Heat-Assisted Photoacidic Oxidation Method for Tailoring the Surface Chemistry of Polymer Dielectrics for Low-Power Organic Soft Electronics
摘要： The use in low-power soft electronics of the appropriate insulating polymer materials with a high dielectric constant (k) is considered a practical alternative to that of inorganic dielectric materials, which are brittle and have high processing temperatures. However, the polar surfaces of typical high-k polymer insulators are problematic. Further, it is a huge challenge to control their surface properties without damage because of their soft and chemically fragile nature. Here, a heat-assisted photoacidic oxidation method that can be used to effectively oxidize the outermost surfaces of high-k rubbery polymer films without degradation is presented. The oxidized surfaces prepared with the developed method contain large numbers of hydroxyl groups that enable the subsequent growth of dense and ordered self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) consisting of organosilanes. The whole process modifies the surface characteristics of polymer dielectrics effectively. The mechanisms of the oxidation of polymer surfaces and the subsequent SAM growth process are investigated. The resulting surface-tailored rubbery dielectrics exhibit superior electrical characteristics when used in organic transistors. These results demonstrate that this method can be used to realize practical soft organic electronics based on high-k polymer dielectrics.

Energy disorder and energy level alignment between host and dopant in organic semiconductors
摘要： Energy level alignment between host and dopant molecules plays a critical role in exciton formation and harvesting in light emission zone of organic light-emitting diodes. Understanding the mechanism for predicting energy level alignment is thus important in materials selection for fabricating high-performance organic light-emitting devices. Here we show that host-dopant energy level alignment strongly depends on film thickness and substrate work function by using X-ray and ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy. Invariant Gaussian density of states fails to explain the experimental data. We speculate that energy disorder in molecules next to the surface dictates the alignment. Ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy measurements of several archetypical organic semiconductors confirm our speculation. An empirical interface disorder function is derived and used to construct a functional Gaussian density of states to compute host energy levels. Host-dopant energy level alignment is then computed by applying the universal energy alignment rule and is found in excellent agreement with the experimental data.

Electrical Detection of Singlet Fission in Single Crystal Tetracene Transistors
摘要： We present the electrical detection of singlet fission in tetracene by using a field-effect transistor (FET). Singlet fission is a photo-induced spin-dependent process, yielding two triplet excitons from the absorption of a single photon. In this study, we engineered a more deterministic platform composed of an organic single crystal FET rather than amorphous or polycrystalline FETs to elucidate spin-dependent processes under magnetic fields. Despite the unipolar operation and relatively high mobility of single crystal tetracene FETs, we were able to manipulate spin dependent processes to detect magnetoconductance (MC) at room temperature by illuminating the FETs and tuning the bias voltage to adjust majority charge carrier density and trap occupancy. In considering the crystalline direction and magnetic field interactions in tetracene, we show the MC response observed in tetracene FETs to be the result of the singlet fission process.

Tertiary Amines Differentiated from Primary and Secondary Amines by Active Ester-Functionalized Hexabenzoperylene in Field Effect Transistors
摘要： Herein, we report two novel derivatives of hexabenzoperylene (HBP) that are functionalized with ester groups. Methyl acetate functionalized HBP (1) in single crystals self-assembles into a supramolecular nanosheet, which has a two-dimensional π-stack of HBP sandwiched between two layers of ester groups. With the same self-assembly motif, active ester-functionalized HBP (2) in field effect transistors has enabled differentiation of tertiary amines from primary and secondary amines, in agreement with the fact that active ester reacts with primary and secondary amines but not with tertiary amines to form amides.

Transport models in disordered organic semiconductors and their application to the simulation of thin-film transistors
摘要： Relevant organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) simulation software must account for the main specificities of organic semiconductors (OSC) in term of free carriers’ density of states, transport mechanisms, and injection/collection properties from/to the device contacts. Among the parameters impacting the OTFT performance the carrier mobility is a key parameter. Usual methods to extract the mobility from current-voltage (I-V) measurements lead to obtained only an apparent, or effective, mobility. The value of the apparent mobility is different of the intrinsic channel organic semiconductor mobility. Despite this effective mobility actually determines most of a given device performance, therefore providing a very useful technology benchmark, it does not describe the intrinsic organic semiconductor material transport properties, and may even be misleading in the route to improve the OTFT fabrication process. To obtain a better understanding of the transport properties in OSCs using OTFT electrical characterization, implementing an appropriate physical mobility model in an OTFT I-V simulation software is a good way. The present paper gives a review of the carrier mobility models which can be implemented in OTFT simulation software. The review is restricted to the analytical and semi-analytical physical models taking into account the temperature, the carrier concentration and the electric field dependence of the carrier mobility in disordered OSCs.

Setup to Study the in Situ Evolution of Both Photoluminescence and Absorption during the Processing of Organic or Hybrid Semiconductors
摘要： In situ measurement techniques, applied during the solution processing of novel semiconductors such as organic semiconductors or hybrid perovskites, have become more and more important to understand their film formation. In that context, it is crucial to determine how the optical properties, namely photoluminescence (PL) and absorption, evolve during processing. However, until now PL and absorption have mostly been investigated independently, significantly reducing the potential insights into film formation dynamics. To tackle this issue we present the development of a detection system that allows simultaneous measurement of full absorption and PL spectra during solution processing of the investigated film. We also present a spin-coater system attachable to the detection system, where the temperature of the substrate on which the film is processed can be changed. We performed test measurements by spin coating the well-known conjugated polymer P3HT demonstrating the potential of this technique. By considering absorption and corresponding PL, we extract the PL quantum yield (PLQY) during processing, which decreases with substrate temperature. Furthermore, we identify a significant red shift of the PL just prior to the onset of the aggregation process, indicating the importance of chain planarization prior to solid film formation.

Hole transporting properties of discotic liquid-crystalline semiconductor confined in calamitic UV-crosslinked gel
摘要： The influence of polymer network on hole transport in discotic liquid crystal (LC) is investigated by the time of flight charge carrier mobility measurements. Composites of discotic LC and nematic reactive mesogen undergo UV-activated polymerization in columnar phase which yields the formation of chemical gels. Polarized optical microscopy allows us to observe alignment effect, whether scanning electron microscopy helps us to obtain characteristic imprint of polydomain columnar phase in created polymeric network. Hole mobility is improved, presumably due to the stabilization of the alignment of discotic LC. This type of composite is relevant for potential multilayer and flexible device applications.
