Abstract

Organic Field Effect Transistors (OFETs) have proven to be a competitive alternative to the Silicon Thin Film Transistors (TFTs) available on the market today. They can be produced at lower cost, lower energy, and higher throughput than TFTs and additionally show unprecedented physical flexibility, allowing for a variety of applications. However, OFETs lack the same level of intermolecular interactions as TFTs; as such, work is being done to discover high mobility values for the two types of materials needed for OFETs, n-type and p-type. My research in the Cao lab focuses on synthesizing different aromatic imides as potential n-type semiconductors.
