Abstract

We report the rapid improvement in the carrier mobility of the electric double layer field-effect transistor based on the ionic liquid (IL)/pentacene single crystal interface. Generally, the surface oxidation of the pentacene single crystal is unavoidable, and the considerable degradation restricts the performance of the field-effect transistor. However, the formation of the IL/pentacene single crystal interface resolves this problem by increasing the carrier mobility by approximately twice the initial value within a few hours. Furthermore, frequency-modulation atomic force microscopy revealed that the aforementioned rapid improvement is attributed to the appearance of a clean and flat surface of the pentacene single crystal via the defect-induced spontaneous dissolution of pentacene molecules into the IL.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
