Morphology Influence on the Mechanical Stress Response in Bendable Organic Field-Effect Transistors with Solution-Processed Semiconductors

The influence of semiconductor morphology on the mechanical response of low voltage, flexible organic field-effect transistors fabricated on plastic substrates is explored. Bar-assisted meniscus shearing is considered for patterning the organic semiconductor; morphological features of the film are c...
