Doped Polyaniline: A Possible Anode for Organic Electronics

Abstract

Polymer based printable organic thin film transistor (OTFT) is a viable low cost alternative to amorphous silicon based thin film transistors and possesses light-weight and flexibility advantage. In this paper, we report on the hole injecting properties of doped PANI in OLED devices using it as an anode. From these results we conclude that hole doped PANI layers can be used as a low contact resistance source and drain electrode material for polymer OTFTs.
