Fabrication of ambipolar organic field-effect transistors （OFETs） is essential for the achievement of an organic complementary logic circuit. Ambipolar transports in OFETs with heterojunction structures are realized.We select pentacene as a P-type material and N,N＇-bis（4-trifluoromethylben-zyl）perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide （PTCDI-TFB） as a n-type material in the active layer of the OFETs.The field-effect transistor shows highly air-stable ambipolar characteristics with a field-effect hole mobility of 0.18 cm^2/（V·s） and field-effect electron mobility of 0.031 cm^2/（V·s）.Furthermore the mobility only slightly decreases after being exposed to air and remains stable even for exposure to air for more than 60 days.The high electron affinity of PTCDI-TFB and the octadecyltrichlorosilane （OTS） self-assembly monolayer between the SiO2 gate dielectric and the organic active layer result in the observed air-stable characteristics of OFETs with high mobility.The results demonstrate that using the OTS as a modified gate insulator layer and using high electron affinity semiconductor materials are two effective methods to fabricate OFETs with air-stable characteristics and high mobility.
