Comparative study on different annealing methods and choice of solvent in organic field effect transistors based on Poly(3-hexylthiophene)

A simple approach to study the effect of processing on the charge carrier mobility in an organic field effect transistor (OFET) based on regioregular poly(3-hexylthiophene) (RR P3HT) is investigated in this paper. It is found that different processing conditions can induce different degrees of hyste...
