Abstract:
New, neutral, meso-substituted tetraoxa[22]annulene[2,1,2,1] aromatic macrocycles are synthesised and disclosed as new p-type semiconductors with reproducible bulk-like carrier mobility (as high as 0.40 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1)) on highly crystalline thin films deposited on octadecyltrichlorosilane modified SiO(2).

Schottky Barriers
Schottky barriers arise when a metal with a work function (Φm) contacts a semiconductor with a different work function (Φs). Initially, electrons transfer until the Fermi levels of the metal and semiconductor align at equilibrium. For instance, if Φm > Φs, the semiconductor Fermi level is higher than the metal's before contact. The semiconductor's...
