Abstract

High performance p-/n-type transistors and complementary inverter circuits are demonstrated using patterned polypyrrole (PPY) as pure electrodes. Strikingly, these devices show good stability under continuous operation and long-term storage conditions. Furthermore, PPY electrodes also exhibit good applicability in solution-processed and flexible devices. All these results indicate the great potential of PPY electrodes in solution-processed, all-organic, flexible, transparent, and low-power electronics.
