Abstract

Abstract : Single-crystal field-effect transistors of a highly dipolar merocyanine dye reach p-type mobility values of up to 2.34 cm 2 V −1 s −1 in air. Abstract : The charge transport properties of a highly dipolar merocyanine dye are investigated in single-crystal field-effect transistors. The devices can reach a p-type mobility value of up to 2.34 cm 2 V −1 s −1 and calculations show that the charge transport mainly occurs along the π-stacking direction of the needle-like single crystals.
