THE ORGANIC FIELD-EFFECT TRANSISTORS

Since their first emergence during the late eighties, organic field-ef fect transitors (OFETs) have been the subject of numerous works. In th e present paper, we review the materials that have been used in OFETs, and analyse their operating mode. The performance of organic transist or are compared to that of single crystalline and amorphous silicon tr ansistors. Particularly, we discuss the charge transport mechanims in organic solids, and their connection with structural properties. Final ly, possible future developments of organic transitors are given.
