Synergistic polarization engineering of dielectric towards low-voltage high-mobility solution-processed ultraflexible organic transistors
The emerging wearable skin-like electronics require the ultra-flexible organic transistor to operate at low voltage for electrical safety and energy efficiency and simultaneously enable high field-effect mobility to ensure the carrier migration ability and the switching speed of circuits. However, the currently reported low-voltage organic transistors generally present low mobility, originating from the trade-off between molecular polarity and surface polarity of the dielectrics. In this work, the orientation polarization of the dielectric is enhanced by introducing a flexible quaternary ammonium side chain, and the surface polarity is weakened by the shielding effect of the nonpolar methyl groups on the polar nitrogen atom. The resulting antisolvent QPSU dielectric enables the high-dielectric constant up to 18.8 and the low surface polarity with the polar component of surface energy only at 2.09 mJ/m2. Such a synergistic polarization engineering between orientation polarization and surface polarity makes the solution-processed ultraflexible transistors present the ultralow operational voltage down to −3 V, the ultrahigh charge-carrier mobility up to 8.28 cm2 V−1 s−1 at 1 Hz, excellent cyclic operational stability and long-term air stability. These results combined with the ultrathin thickness of transistor as low as 135 nm, the ultralight mass of 0.5 g/m2, the conformal adherence capability on human skin and 1-μm blade edge, and the strong mechanical robustness with stable electrical properties for 30,000 bending cycles, open up an available strategy to successfully realize low-voltage high-mobility solution-processed organic transistor, and presents the potential application of QPSU dielectric for the next-generation wearable imperceptible skin-like electronics.
