Summary: | This work reports the development of field-effect transistors (FETs), whose channel is based on zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles (NPs). Using screen-printing as the primary deposition technique, different inks were developed, where the semiconducting ink is based on a ZnO NPs dispersion in ethyl cellulose (EC). These inks were used to print electrolyte-gated transistors (EGTs) in a staggered-top gate structure on glass substrates, using a lithium-based polymeric electrolyte. In another approach, FETs with a staggered-bottom gate structure on paper were developed using a sol-gel method to functionalize the paper’s surface with ZnO NPs, using zinc acetate dihydrate (ZnC4H6O4·2H2O) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as precursors. In this case, the paper itself was used as dielectric. The various layers of the two devices were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetric analyses (TG-DSC). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used in order to evaluate the electric double-layer (EDL) formation, in the case of the EGTs. The ZnO NPs EGTs present electrical modulation for annealing temperatures equal or superior to 300 ºC and in terms of electrical properties they showed On/Off ratios in the order of 103, saturation mobilities (μSat) of 1.49x10-1 cm2(Vs)-1 and transconductance (gm) of 10-5 S. On the other hand, the ZnO NPs FETs on paper exhibited On/Off ratios in the order of 102, μSat of 4.83x10- 3 cm2(Vs)-1and gm around 10-8 S. |
