Think like an electronOrganic electronic materials have many applications and potential in low-cost electronics such as electronic barcodes and in light emitting devices, due to their easily tailored properties. While the chemical aspects and characterization have been widely studied, characterization of the electrical properties has been neglected, and classic textbook modeling has been applied. This is most striking in the analysis of thin-film transistors (TFTs) using thick “bulk” transistor (MOS-FET) descriptions. At first glance the TFTs appear to behave as regular MOS-FETs. However, upon closer examination it is clear that TFTs are unique and merit their own model. Understanding and interpreting measurements of organic devices, which are often seen as black-box measurements, is critical to developing better devices and this, therefore, has to be done with care.Electrical Characterization of Organic Electronic Materials and DevicesGives new insights into the electronic properties and measurement techniques for low-mobility electronic devicesCharacterizes the thin-film transistor using its own modelLinks the phenomena seen in different device structures and different measurement techniquesPresents clearly both how to perform electrical measurements of organic and low-mobility materials and how to extract important information from these measurementsProvides a much-needed theoretical foundation for organic electronics
