Bias-dependent Contact Resistance in Rubrene Single-Crystal Field-Effect Transistors
arXiv:cond-mat/0703029 · doi:10.1063/1.2741411
Abstract
We report a systematic study of the bias-dependent contact resistance in rubrene single-crystal field-effect transistors with Ni, Co, Cu, Au, and Pt electrodes. We show that the reproducibility in the values of contact resistance strongly depends on the metal, ranging from a factor of two for Ni to more than three orders of magnitude for Au. Surprisingly, FETs with Ni, Co, and Cu contacts exhibits an unexpected reproducibility of the bias-dependent differential conductance of the contacts, once this has been normalized to the value measured at zero bias. This reproducibility may enable the study of microscopic carrier injection processes into organic semiconductors.
