Description

  The present invention relates to an organic transistor. More specifically, the present invention relates to an organic transistor using an organic compound having a specific structure for an organic semiconductor layer.

Conventionally, a thin film transistor (TFT) made of amorphous silicon or polycrystalline silicon has been widely used as a switching element for flat panel display such as a liquid crystal display device. However, a CVD apparatus used for manufacturing a thin film transistor using silicon is expensive, and manufacturing a large-sized thin film transistor element has a drawback of increasing manufacturing cost.
In addition, since amorphous silicon and polycrystalline silicon are formed at a high temperature, there is a problem that a plastic material that is lightweight and flexible but has poor heat resistance cannot be used as a substrate. .
In order to solve the above problem, an organic transistor (also referred to as an organic thin film transistor or an organic TFT) using an organic compound for a channel semiconductor layer (hereinafter referred to as an organic semiconductor layer) instead of amorphous silicon or polycrystalline silicon is proposed. (Non-Patent Document 1).
As a method for forming the organic semiconductor layer, for example, a vacuum deposition method or a coating method is known. According to these film formation methods, it is easy to increase the size of the organic transistor element while suppressing the manufacturing cost. . Furthermore, the temperature required for film formation can be lowered, and organic transistors using organic compounds can use plastic materials for the substrate, which can be applied to flexible display elements. Expectations are gathered for the transformation.
A practical organic transistor needs to have characteristics such as high charge mobility and a large current on / off ratio. Here, the term “on / off ratio” means the ratio of the current between the source electrode and the drain electrode when the organic transistor is on to the current between the source electrode and the drain electrode when the organic transistor is off. To do.
Furthermore, excellent storage stability is required for practical application of organic transistors.
To date, organic transistors using, for example, pentacene as the organic semiconductor layer have been proposed (Non-Patent Document 2).
However, an organic transistor using pentacene has a problem that it has a low function as an organic transistor in the atmosphere and low storage stability.
Furthermore, an organic transistor using a thiophene oligomer (α-hexathienylene) as an organic semiconductor layer has been proposed (Non-patent Document 3). However, the organic transistor also has a drawback that its storage stability in air is low.
In order to improve these problems, an organic transistor using 2,8-diphenyl-peri-xanthenoxanthene for an organic semiconductor layer has been proposed (Patent Document 1). In addition, an organic transistor using 3,9-diphenyl-peri-xanthenoxanthene as an organic semiconductor layer has been proposed (Non-Patent Document 4).
However, an organic transistor using these peri-xanthenoxanthene compounds in the organic semiconductor layer has a drawback of low charge mobility.
At present, development of further improved organic transistors is required for practical use.
