Systems and methods for organic semiconductor devices with sputtered contact layers

Patent ·
OSTI ID:1771775

Systems and methods for organic semiconductor devices with sputtered contact layers are provided. In one embodiment, an organic semiconductor device comprises: a first contact layer (140) comprising a first sputter-deposited transparent conducting oxide; an electron transport layer (130) interfacing with the first contact layer; a second contact layer (110) comprising a second sputter-deposited transparent conducting oxide; a hole transport layer interfacing with the second contact layer; and an organic semiconductor active layer (120) having a first side facing the electron transport layer and an opposing second side facing the hole transport layer; wherein either the electron transport layer or the hole transport layer comprises a buffering transport layer.
