Stochastic Resonance in Bioinspired Electronic Device Using Polymer Field Effect Transistors
摘要: Stochastic resonance (SR) phenomenon is emerged in organic field effect transistors (OFETs) using π-conjugated polymer, where application of external noise to the OFET system enhances signal/information processing performance which is often found in biological systems. The channel conductivity of the OFET is slightly increased by spin-coating using heated semiconductor polymer solution with heated glass substrate. In order to improve frequency responses of OFET, optimal width of the gate electrode is explored. Furthermore, it turns out that scratching and removing semiconductor film outside the source-drain electrodes and the channel enhances the On-Off current ratio of the device. These fabrication processes lead to steeper nonlinearity on the IDS vs. VGS curve, resulting in emergence of SR, which is fingerprinted in increase of correlation value between input and output signals with increase of intensity of external noise.

Entanglement Reduction Induced by Geometrical Confinement in Polymer Thin Films
摘要: We report simulation results on melts of entangled linear polymers confined in a free-standing thin film. We study how the geometric constraints imposed by the confinement alter the entanglement state of the system compared to the equivalent bulk system using various observables. We find that the confinement compresses the chain conformation uniaxially, decreasing the volume pervaded by the chain, which in turn reduces the number of the accessible interchain contact that could lead to entanglements. This local and nonuniform effect depends on the position of the chain within the film. We also test a recently presented theory that predicts how the number of entanglements decreases with geometrical confinement.

Ultrasonic Studies of Solid Azobenzene-Decorated Polymer Thin Films
摘要: This work investigates the effect of ultrasound on switching of cis azobenzene isomers to their trans counterparts in solid films of methyl methacrylate and methacryloyloxyazobenzene copolymers [P(MMA/MOAB)]. Ultraviolet?visible and 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies demonstrate that 46% of the cis isomer converts to the trans form purely by ultrasonic agitation and 46% converts to the trans isomer by localized ultrasound-induced heating effects. Comparative studies of isomerization by ultrasound wave, heat, and visible irradiation show that ultrasound exposure requires a longer time to switch the cis-to-trans conformation. The estimated activation energy for the cis-to-trans conversion in solid polymer films is shown to be comparable to previous values of azobenzene isomerization, indicating that incorporation of the chromophore in a polymeric system affects the kinetics of transition but not the barriers to conformational change.
