Why Organic Semiconductors?

An alternative to inorganic electronics:• Easier manufacturing• Low temperature processing• Solution processing • Lower costs• Flexible substrates

What are Organic Semiconductors?

What advantages do they offer?

Eutectic Grain Boundaries

Conclusion

• At 62.5% ClTesADT and 37.5%TesADT, a eutectic point forms

• This eutectic point has the highest intermixing and therefore the greatest grain connectivity

• As a result, OFETs with this molecular structure have higher hole mobility and function better

• Future work could involve other TesADT derivatives
