A method for improving the performance of an organic thin film field effect transistor including the steps of: (a) forming a transistor structure having patterned source and drain electrodes; and (b) treating the patterned source and drain electrodes with a thiol compound having the
A method for patterning a chemically sensitive organic thin film such as pentacene comprising (a) forming a protective material layer on the surface of a chemically sensitive organic thin film, said protective material layer being chemically resistant; (b) forming a photoresist on an
A method for improving the performance of an organic thin film field effect transistor comprising the steps of: (a) forming a transistor structure having patterned source and drain electrodes; and (b) treating the patterned source and drain electrodes with a thiol compound having the
An FET structure in accordance with the invention employs an organic-inorganic hybrid material as the semiconducting channel between source and drain electrodes of the device. The organic-inorganic material combines the advantages of an inorganic, crystalline solid with those of an o
