| Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
Understanding the processes governing the injection of charge carriers from the metal into the organic semiconductor is crucial for improving organic semiconductor devices.In my research we built organic single-crystalline field-effect transistor. Single-crystal organic semiconductors are becoming the standard for research and applications. Therefore, it is vital to investigate the charge injection into these single crystals.
We built over 2 dozen transistors. Depending on the details of the processing conditions, we observed 3 distinguished features in the injection characteristics. Thanks to careful analysis in combination with a self developed numerical simulator we could trace the origin of some of these effects.
We could show, that a widely observed reduction of the contact resistance is due to filling of defects in the contact region. This is a first evidence of the direct influence of defects on the contact resistance.

Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
As planned, we managed to measure and analyze how the charge injection is influenced by external parameters. We implemented some of the found parameters into a comprehensive as well as a simplified simulation model, which lead to a deeper understanding of the contact region.

| Strategy for Future Research Activity |
I am in preparation of a manuscript describing the influence of defect states on charge injection and in parallel analyzing more data leading to an additional publication. We plan to present these findings at two international conferences, one in Japan and one in the USA. To intensify this research, we are in discussion with an industrial partner to start a collaboration.
