Zirconium oligosiloxane resin was synthesized by a sol-gel reaction and UV-curing for organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) application. The synthesized resin has long-term stability and durability, which could be easily processed to produce a smooth coating on Si substrate. The dielectric constant of the film increased from 2.46 to 4.67 according to the variation of zirconium content. In addition, a low leakage current density of 10(-6)-10(-7)A/cm(2) at 2 MV/cm was obtained. Pentacene-based OTFTs were fabricated using the synthesized hybrimer as the gate dielectric layer, and their performances were optimized by tuning the ratio of zirconium and siloxane. Organic thin film transistors with zirconium oligosiloxane gate insulator were found to exhibit excellent performances with enhanced mobility at low applied voltage, a high on/off ratio, and nearly-hysteresis-free transfer characteristics.
