Low-power-consumption organic field-effect transistors

Abstract At present, the electrical performance of organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) has reached the level of commercial amorphous silicon. OFETs show considerable application potential in artificial intelligence, deep learning algorithms, and artificial skin sensors. The devices which can operate with high performance and low power consumption are needed for these applications. The recent energy-related improvement to realize low-power consumption OFETs were reviewed, including minimizing operating voltage, reducing subthreshold swing, and decreasing contact resistance. In this review, we demonstrate breakthroughs in materials and methods to decrease power consumption, providing a promising avenue toward low-power consumption organic electronics.
