Abstract:
2D mica crystals (with thickness < 100 nm) obtained by mechanical exfoliation are incorporated for the first time into the design of organic thin film field-effect transistor arrays and organic single crystal transistors as a gate insulator. The size of mica crystals could be up to the dimensions of an A4 piece of paper. All devices so fabricated exhibited high mobility and low operating voltage, indicating the high quality of the crystals and the great potential of mica crystals as a flexible, low-cost, transparent insulator for organic electronics.

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...
