Abstract

An organic electronic device. The device includes a first electrode to inject or extract hole, the first electrode including a conductive layer and an n-type organic compound layer disposed on the conductive layer, a second electrode to inject or extract electron, a p-type organic compound layer disposed between the n-type organic compound layer and the second electrode. The p-type organic compound layer forms an NP junction between the n-type organic compound layer and the p-type organic compound layer. The energy difference between a lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy of the n-type organic compound layer and a Fermi energy of the conductive layer is about 2 eV or less, and the energy difference between the LUMO energy of the n-type organic compound layer and a highest unoccupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy of the p-type organic compound layer is about 1 eV or less.

Claims (10)

1. An organic transistor comprising:

a source electrode;

a drain electrode;

a gate;

an insulating layer disposed on the gate;

a p-type organic compound layer disposed on the insulating layer; and

an n-type organic compound layer disposed between the source electrode or the drain electrode and the p-type organic compound layer, an NP junction being formed between the n-type organic compound layer and the p-type organic compound layer,

wherein an energy difference between a LUMO energy of the n-type organic compound layer and a Fermi energy of the source electrode or the drain electrode is about 2 eV or less and the LUMO energy of the n-type organic compound layer is greater than the Fermi energy of the source electrode or the drain electrode; and

wherein an energy difference between the LUMO energy of the n-type organic compound layer and HOMO energy of the p-type organic compound layer is about 1 eV or less,

wherein the n-type organic compound layer comprises fluoro-substituted 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA), cyano-substituted PTCDA, naphthalene-tetracaboxylic-dianhydride (NTCDA), fluoro-substituted NTCDA, cyano-substituted NTCDA, or hexanitrile hexaazatriphenylene (HAT).
