Abstract
We demonstrate the fabrication of an organic Ferroelectric Field Effect Transistor (FeFET) incorporating a ferroelectric gate dielectric made of nanostripes obtained by nanoimprinting poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) over a layer of semiconducting poly(triarylamine). The imprinting process results in a decreased switching voltage for the ferroelectric, by a factor of ca. 1.5, resulting in a decreased operating voltage compared to a reference FeFET with a continuous ferroelectric layer. The transistor consists of a large number of nanostripe-gated transistors placed in parallel, which also offers interesting possibilities for a strong size reduction of organic FeFETs.
