Show Abstract
Using a modified flow-coating method, bottom-gate/bottom-contact type organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) with a highly oriented active layer of 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS-pentacene) were fabricated. The flow-coated TIPS-pentacene films were fairly uniform and consisted of arrays of needle-shaped crystals along the flow-coating direction. The uniformity allowed us to determine the contact resistance by a transfer line method. The usefulness of the modified flow-coating method for fabricating high performance OFETs has been demonstrated, and we found that not only the field-effect mobility but also the contact resistance significantly depends on the channel current direction with respect to the flow-coating direction.

Show Abstract
An external magnetic field can change the current through an organic light-emitting diode and the luminance it emits. Existing models predict that both phenomena have the same behaviour and, therefore, a common origin; however, there are indications that they are not completely linked. As a direct proof, we measured the magnetic field effect in multilayer organic light-emitting diodes using Alq3 as emission layer. After successively adding blocking layers, we found a decrease of the magnetic field effect on the current, whereas the effect on the luminance remained at the same level. Thus, both effects can be separated from each other.

Show Abstract
We have demonstrated device operation of down-scaled n-type field effect transistors (FETs) with ink-jet printed source/drain contacts and sub-μm channel length, using the P(NDI2OD-T2) semiconducting polymer as active material. We integrated these devices with down-scaled p-type FETs made with bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)pentacene to fabricate complementary inverter gates, in which both transistors and the printed interconnections were implemented on the same substrate. The devices operate at 10 V supply voltage, achieve noise margin values of 56% of math and a gain higher than 10. They are therefore suitable for printed, high performance organic integrated circuits with low supply voltage.

Show Abstract
The effect of electric field and temperature on bistable characteristics of indium tin oxide/tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3)/aluminum (Al) device has been investigated. The switching time, during which the device turns from a high resistive (OFF) state to a low resistive (ON) state, increases with decreasing field and temperature. The observed phenomena are accounted for by a phenomenological model that metallic nano-tips may evolve under the influence of the electric field and temperature.
