Solution Overview

Problem

Existing organic thin film transistors face challenges in achieving improved insulation reliability without compromising mobility, as current compositions fail to meet the required levels of both performance metrics.

Innovation Solution

An organic semiconductor composition is developed that includes an anti-migration agent with specific structural formulas, which is mixed in sufficient quantities with organic semiconductor materials to enhance insulation reliability while maintaining mobility, specifically using compounds with molecular weights less than 3,000 and containing multiple functional groups to inhibit crystallization and improve dispersibility.

If higher amounts of antioxidant are added to improve insulation reliability, then oxidation resistance increases, but mobility may be compromised

Solution Approach 1:

The patent establishes an optimal concentration range (0.1-10 wt%) for antioxidants, identifying that too little provides insufficient oxidation protection while too much degrades mobility. This precise parameter control resolves the contradiction by defining the narrow window where both insulation reliability and mobility coexist at acceptable levels.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent applies partial action by using small but sufficient amounts of antioxidant (0.1-10 wt%) rather than large quantities. This partial addition provides just enough oxidation protection to improve insulation reliability without exceeding the threshold that would harm mobility, thus resolving the trade-off between the two parameters.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #16Partial or excessive action
