Problems solved by technology

Using a simple and easy-to-operate solution-based fabrication process, organic thin-film transistors on rigid substrates can provide 2 / Vs device mobility, but on flexible substrates, the mobility of organic thin film transistors is difficult to break through 10cm 2 / Vs, the inventor analyzes that its reason is: on the one hand, it is more difficult to deposit a high-quality organic film on a flexible substrate by the solution preparation method; Organic materials that do not react with each other, have high solubility and good air stability are the prerequisites for obtaining high-mobility flexible organic thin film transistors, and the optimal setting of the spin-coating process in the device solution preparation process is the key
