Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project has aimed to improve organic devices by inserting self-assembled monolayer (SAM) in the interface between the oxide and semiconductors. The SAMs were designed to have large dipole moment, which enables to induce interface potential. The expected effect was observed when the SAMs were introduced between the Si/SiO2 substrate and ambipolar polymer semiconductor; depending on the surface potentials induced by SAMs, selective unipolarization either for hole or electron transport was achieved. Furthermore, by patterning two different SAMs on the substrate, CMOS-like inverters with ideal switching characteristics were obtained. The technique was further transferred into the fabrication of OPVs. Interestingly, depending on the SAMs, the device performances were largely altered. With the SAM enabling efficient electron collection, the overall performances of solar cells were improved, but with the SAM with opposite dipole moment, the device performances were greatly reduced.
