Problems solved by technology

[0006] Although a lot of research on organic TFTs has been carried out as mentioned above, the performance of the compounds used in conventional organic TFTs is not sufficient, so the operation speed is slow and the on / off ratio is not sufficient for practical use.

Abstract

An organic thin film transistor includes: an organic thin film which includes a compound represented by the following general formula [A]:where each of Ar<1 >and Ar<2 >is selected independently from unsubstituted or substituted aromatic hydrocarbon groups having 6 to 20 carbon atoms and from unsubstituted or substituted aromatic heterocyclic groups having 6 to 20 carbon atoms; and X is selected from unsubstituted or substituted condensed aromatic hydrocarbon groups having 6 to 34 carbon atoms, and the condensed aromatic hydrocarbon groups are monovalent, divalent, trivalent or tetravalent groups; and n is the natural number in the range of 1-4.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an organic thin film transistor with an organic semiconductor layer, in particular to an organic TFT (Thin Film Transistor) with high driving speed and high on / off ratio. Background technique [0002] Thin film transistors are widely used as display switching elements such as liquid crystal display devices. Conventionally, amorphous or polycrystalline silicon has been used to fabricate thin film transistors (hereinafter referred to as TFTs). However, the CVD apparatus used for the production of such TFTs using silicon is very expensive, and thus the increase in the size of a display device using TFTs leads to a significant increase in production costs. In addition, the process of forming an amorphous or polycrystalline silicon film needs to be carried out at a very high temperature, so the types of materials that can be used as substrates are also limited by this, and lightweight resin substrates cannot be used. [0003] In o...
