Abstract

We report on in situ, self-assembly, solution-processing of metallic (Au/Ag) nanowire-based transparent electrodes integrated to vertical organic field-effect transistors (VOFETs). In the VOFET architecture, the nanowires microstructure facilitates current modulation by the gate across the otherwise shielding sandwiched source electrode. We show N-type VOFETs operation with on/off ratio ∼1 × 105 and high current density (>1 mA cm-2 at VDS = 5 V). The integration of the device design and the transparent electrode deposition methods offers a potential route for all-solution processing-based, large-area, high-efficiency organic electronics.
