Organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) with ideal behavior are highly desired, because nonideal devices may overestimate the intrinsic property and yield inferior performance in applications. In reality, most polymer OTFTs reported literature do not exhibit characteristics. Supported by a structure-property relationship study of several low-disorder conjugated polymers, here, we present an empirical selection rule for candidates textbook-like high reliability factors (100% transistors).

Recent reports highlight the potential of tin-based perovskite semiconductors for high-performance p-type field-effect transistors (FETs) with mobilities exceeding 20 cm2V-1s-1. However, these high mobilities--often obtained via two-probe (2P) methods on devices small channel length-to-width ratios (L/W < 0.5) operating in saturation regime at drain-source currents--raise concerns about overestimation due to contact resistance and non-ideal FET characteristics.
