Abstract

Organic field-effect transistors with hydrogen-bonded diketopyrrolopyrrole-thiophene co-oligomers were fabricated by a solution-process method with annealing at 200 °C, showing ambipolar charge-carrier transfer with field-effect mobilities up to μ(h) = 6.7 × 10(-3) cm(2) V(-1)s(-1) and μ(e) = 5.6 × 10(-3) cm(2) V(-1) s(-1).
