Enhanced photoconductivity of semiconductor polymers using graphene nanoflakes

We have examined the effect of the addition of graphene nanoflakes (GNs) to improve the field-effect mobility of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT)-based field-effect transistors (FETs). We observe that the FET mobility increases up to 0.02 cm2/Vs at GNs concentration of 0.06 mg/mL. The remarkable … Continue reading

Negative field-dependent charge mobility in crystalline organic semiconductors with delocalized transport

Charge-carrier mobility has been investigated by time-of-flight (TOF) transient photocurrent in a lateral transport configuration in highly crystalline thin films of 2,7-dioctyl[1]benzothieno [3,2-b][1] benzothiophene (C8-BTBT) grown by a zone-casting alignment technique. High TOF mobility has been revealed that it is … Continue reading
