Abstract:
|
The authors report on a metastable defect observed in pentacene thin films. The defect, which is
characterized by a hole trap at Ev+0.6 eV and attempt-to-escape frequency of 5x1012 s−1, can be
reversibly created/removed under a negative/positive bias voltage applied to the aluminum/
pentacene Schottky diode at room temperature in air. Annealing the sample in vacuum at 360 K
removes the defect and prevents its creation by application of any bias voltage in vacuum.
Considering recent calculations of defects in pentacene the authors assume that the defect is formed
by replacing one of the hydrogen atoms by an oxygen atom (C22 H13 O). |
