Pressure Control Organic Vapor Deposition Methods for Fabricating Organic Thin‐Film Transistors

In this letter, we report on the development progress of a pressure control organic vapor deposition (PCOVD) technology used to design and build a large area deposition system. We also investigate the growth characteristics of a pentacene thin film by PCOVD. Using the PCOVD method, the mobility and on/off current ratio of an organic thin‐film transistor (OTFT) on a plastic substrate are 0.1 cm 2 /Vs and 10 6 , respectively. The developed OTFT can be applied to a flexible display on a plastic substrate.
