Organic Field-Effect Transistors
Organic Field-Effect Transistors (OFETs) are electronic devices that use organic materials to control electrical current. Unlike traditional transistors that rely on inorganic semiconductors like silicon, OFETs utilize carbon-based compounds, which can be flexible and lightweight. This makes them suitable for applications in flexible electronics, displays, and sensors.
OFETs operate by applying a voltage to a gate terminal, which creates an electric field that modulates the flow of charge carriers in the organic material. This technology is being explored for use in various devices, including organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic photovoltaic cells, enhancing the performance and versatility of electronic systems.
