Purification via sublimation and Comparison of FET performances: Pentacene [P2524]
We offer a high-purity Pentacene (99.999%, trace metals basis) (purified by sublimation) as “High Quality Organic Semiconductor Materials (For organic Electronics)” specialized for electrical performance indicated by OFET mobility*. P2524 has specification for its OFET mobility: [> 0.35 cm2/Vs (bare Si/SiO2)]. We inspect P2524 through our OFET evaluation process for every lot. Only lots that pass this functional test are accepted and shipped as our “High Quality Organic Semiconductor Materials (For organic Electronics)”.
(* The mobility refers to device evaluation measurements obtained within our facility under specific environment condition.)

Fabrication and evaluation of Pentacene OFET devices.
The field-effect mobility of each various grades of pentacene were measured using top-contact thin-film field-effect transistors geometry (Figure 1). A thin film of pentacene as the active layer (60 nm) was vacuum-deposited onto Si/SiO2 substrates (bare) at room temperature (Tsub = RT). The drain and source electrodes (40 nm) were then prepared by gold evaporation through a shadow mask on top of the pentacene films; the drain-source channel length (L) and width (w) are 50 μm and 1.5 mm, respectively. The characteristics of the OFET devices were measured under nitrogen atmosphere.

The FET performances of our various pentacene grades are summarized in Figure 2 and Table 1. P2524 (high-purity Pentacene 99.999%, trace metals basis) showed a large increase OFET performance with the highest hole mobility of 0.39 cm2/Vs. In comparison to other companies’ sublimed pentacene samples, P2524 possesses the highest drain current and the best OFET potential (Figure 3 and Table 2).

Furthermore, as a result of FET device modification by self-assembled monolayer, significant improvement in FET devices performance were achieved. The OTS-treated device demonstrated the highest performance with a hole carrier mobility of 1.52 cm2/Vs and an on/off ratio of 1.5 × 107 (Figure 2).
