A Compact Model for Organic Field-Effect Transistors With Improved Output Asymptotic Behaviors

Here, we propose an advanced compact analytical current–voltage model for organic field-effect transistors (OFETs), which can be incorporated into SPICE-type circuit simulators. We improved the output saturation behavior by introducing a new asymptotic function that also enables more precise low-voltage current and conductance fitting. A new expression for the subthreshold current was suggested to cover all operation regimes of OFETs. All model parameters were extracted by a systematic method, and the comparison of the modeled current with the experimental data on pentacene-based OFETs confirmed the validity of the model over a wide operation range.
