Research Abstract |
The metal-semiconductor (MS) contact between a metal electrode and an organic semiconductor is generally in the Schottky limit, and the barrier height against carrier injection from an electrode is greatly dependent on the work function of the electrodes. Consequently, metals with air-unstable low workfunctions such as Ca are necessary for electron injection. Here, we report that the Schottky limit can be converted to the Bardeen limit and the carrier injection barrier height can become be independent of the electrode work function. This is exemplified using tetracontane as a surface modification layer on a SiO2 dielectric gate insulator and the unambiguously evidences are given from the experiments of temperature dependence of FETs and photoemission spectroscopy. Based on this finding we demonstrate an air-stable light-emitting organic field-effect transistor using Au electrodes for both hole and electron injection.
