Drop-on-demand inkjet printing is one of the most attractive techniques from a manufacturing perspective due to the possibility of fabrication from a digital layout at ambient conditions, thus leading to great opportunities for the realization of low-cost and flexible thin-film devices. Over the past decades, a variety of inkjet-printed applications including thin-film transistors (TFTs), radio-frequency identification devices, sensors, and displays have been explored. In particular, many resear

We report an all-inkjet-printed inverter using two p-type organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) on a flexible plastic substrate. Metal-organic precursor-type silver ink, poly-4-vinylphenol solution, and 6,13-bis (triisopropylsilylethynyl)-pentacene solution were used to print gate and source/drain electrodes, gate-dielectric layer, and active semiconductor layer, respectively. By optimizing fabrication conditions, we obtained OTFTs with a mobility of 0.02 cm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/199

We report high performance and stable inkjet-printed stretchable silver electrodes on wave structured elastomeric substrates. Highly conductive silver electrodes were deposited directly on a ultraviolet ozone treated polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrates having vertical wavy structures. Adhesion between printed silver lines and PDMS surface has been enhanced by intentionally roughened PDMS surface with wire-electro discharge machined aluminum mold. During slow (16.7 μm/s) stretching test, resis

The interface engineering of two-dimensional (2D) transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has been regarded as a promising strategy to modulate their outstanding electrical and optoelectronic properties because of their inherent 2D nature and large surface-to-volume ratio. In particular, introducing organic molecules and polymers directly onto the surface of TMDs has been explored to passivate the surface defects or achieve better interfacial properties with neighboring surfaces efficiently, thu

Although 2D molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂ ) has gained much attention due to its unique electrical and optical properties, the limited electrical contact to 2D semiconductors still impedes the realization of high-performance 2D MoS₂ -based devices. In this regard, many studies have been conducted to improve the carrier-injection properties by inserting functional paths, such as graphene or hexagonal boron nitride, between the electrodes and 2D semiconductors. The reported stra

As two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides electronic devices are scaled down to the sub-micrometer regime, the active layers of these materials are exposed to high lateral electric fields, resulting in electrical breakdown. In this regard, understanding the intrinsic nature in layer-stacked 2D semiconducting materials under high lateral electric fields is necessary for the reliable applications of their field-effect transistors. Here, we explore the electrical breakdown phenomena

In the past decade, intensive studies on monolayer MoS₂-based phototransistors have been carried out to achieve further enhanced optoelectronic characteristics. However, the intrinsic optoelectronic characteristics of monolayer MoS₂ have still not been explored until now because of unintended interferences, such as multiple reflections of incident light originating from commonly used opaque substrates. This leads to overestimated photoresponsive characteristics inevitably d

Abstract Flexible thermoelectrics that enable conformal contact with heat sources of arbitrary shape are indispensable for self‐powered wearable electronics. Scalable integration of flexible thermoelectric (TE) materials into functional devices has improved over the past few years, however, the practical applications of flexible TE materials are still hindered by low performance. Herein, highly aligned carbon‐nanotube yarns (CNTYs) are proposed, combined with selective doping via picoliter scale

The era of miniaturized and customized electronics requires scalable energy storage devices with versatile shapes. From the perspective of manufacturing, direct ink writing (DIW)-based 3D printing has attracted unprecedented interest, paving the way to demonstrate micro-batteries with design freedom and outstanding performance. Despite demands for all-printed Li-ion batteries with maskless processing, most of the efforts have been dedicated to developing printable active electrodes or building t

Solution-based metal oxide semiconductors (MOSs) have emerged, with their potential for low-cost and low-temperature processability preserving their intrinsic properties of high optical transparency and high carrier mobility. In particular, MOS field-effect transistors (FETs) using the spray pyrolysis technique have drawn huge attention with the electrical performances compatible with those of vacuum-based FETs. However, further intensive investigations are still desirable, associated with the p

Abstract Compliant thermoelectric generators (TEGs) can fully exploit their energy conversion efficiency by establishing conformal interfaces on arbitrarily shaped 3D heat sources. Although additive manufacturing processes allow scalable fabrication with flexibility and customizability, most printable TEGs are fabricated as planar‐type devices that harvest heat only in the in‐plane direction. Herein, 3D‐compliant TEGs fabricated solely using direct ink writing, which enables thermal‐transfer opt

We report high-performance all-inkjet-printed organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs), where inkjet-printed silver electrodes, cross-linked poly(4-vinylphenol) (PVP) and 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS-pentacene) were used as gate/source/drain electrodes, a gate dielectric layer and an active semiconductor layer, respectively. To evaluate quality of the active semiconductor layer, we also fabricated OTFTs by using spin-coating and drop-casting methods for TIPS-pentacene layer on

One of the long-standing problems in the field of organic electronics is their instability in an open environment, especially their poor water resistance. For the reliable operation of organic devices, introducing an effective protection layer using organo-compatible materials and processes is highly desirable. Here, we report a facile method for the depositing of an organo-compatible superhydrophobic protection layer on organic semiconductors under ambient conditions. The protection layer exhib

In this paper, we report contact resistance analysis between inkjet-printed silver source-drain (S/D) electrodes and organic semiconductor layer in bottom-contact organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) using transmission line method (TLM). Inkjet-printed silver electrodes, spin-coated PVP and evaporated pentacene were used as gate and S/D electrodes, gate dielectric layer and semiconductor layer, respectively. On a common gate electrode, S/D electrodes with various channel length from 15 to 111 μ
