Abstract

Compared with their conventional lateral counter parts, vertical organic phototransistors (VOPTs) have the advantage of fast response speed due to short channel lengths, and may find wide applications in the field of high speed photo detection. By operation of VOPTs, the source electrode plays the vital role. We report on fabrication, characterization and analysis of VOPTs with pulsed laser ablation patterned Al/LiF bilayer source electrode. A maximal photoresponsivity of 760 mA/W, external quantum efficiency ( EQE) of 145%, specific detectivity of 1.6 × 10 11 Jones were obtained for un-optimized devices. For describing the output characteristics of the devices, a rough numerical model was developed by combining the theory of thermionic emission at metal/organic interface and space charge limited current conduction.
