Flexible Organic Thin Film Transistors Incorporating a Biodegradable CO₂-Based Polymer as the Substrate and Dielectric Material.

ABSTRACT: Employing CO₂-based polymer in electronic applications should boost the consumption of CO₂ feedstocks and provide the potential for non-permanent CO₂ storage. In this study, polypropylene carbonate (PPC) is utilized as a dielectric and substrate material for organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) and organic inverter. The PPC dielectric film exhibits a surface energy of 47 mN m^-1, a dielectric constant of 3, a leakage current density of less than 10^-6 A cm^-2, and excellent compatibility with pentacene and PTCDI-C8 organic semiconductors. Bottom-gate top-contact OTFTs are fabricated using PPC as a dielectric; they exhibits good electrical performance at an operating voltage of 60 V, with electron and hole mobilities of 0.14 an
