High performance CMOS-like inverter based on an ambipolar organic semiconductor and low cost metals

We report the fabrication of simply structured and high performance organic complementary inverters based on an ambipolar organic semiconductor, 8,9,10,11-tetrachloro-6,13-bis-(triisopropylsilylethynyl)-1-azapentacene (4Cl-Azapen). Individual transistors using symmetric Au electrodes showed high and...
