Patent 7638793 was granted and assigned to Cambridge Enterprise on December, 2009 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
An n-channel or ambipolar field-effect transistor including an organic semiconductive layer having an electron affinity EAsemicond; and an organic gate dielectric layer forming an interface with the semiconductive layer; characterized in that the bulk concentration of trapping groups in the gate dielectric layer is less than 1018 cm−3, where a trapping group is a group having (i) an electron affinity EAX greater than or equal to EAsemicond and/or (ii) a reactive electron affinity EArxn greater than or equal to (EAsemicond.−2 eV).
