  • Methods of making thin film transistors comprising zinc-oxide-based semiconductor materials and transistors made thereby
    Publication number: 20060286737
    Abstract: A thin film transistor comprises a zinc-oxide-containing semiconductor material. Such transistors can further comprise spaced apart first and second contact means or electrodes in contact with said material. Further disclosed is a process for fabricating a thin film transistor device, wherein the substrate temperature is no more than 300° C. during fabrication.
    Type: Application

  • Acene compounds having a single terminal fused thiophene as semiconductor materials for thin film transistors and methods of making the same
    Publication number: 20060220007
    Abstract: A thin film transistor comprises a layer of organic semiconductor material comprising a comprising, in a thin film transistor, a thin film of organic semiconductor material that comprises an acene compound having a linear configuration of at least three fused benzene rings, which compound has, at one end only of the linear configuration, a terminal ring that is a fused substituted or unsubstituted thiophene, fused to an adjacent fused benzene ring of the acene compound.
