Pyrimidopyrimidine derivatives, organic thin film transistors using
pyrimidopyrimidine derivatives and method for fabricating the same are
provided. Pyrimidopyrimidine derivative structures, along with example
syntheses, are provided. The pyrimidopyrimidine derivatives may be
pyrimidopyrimidine oligothiophene derivatives in which an oligothiophene
having p-type semiconductor characteristics may be bonded to a
pyrimidopyrimidine having n-type semiconductor characteristics positioned
substantially in the center of the molecules, thereby simultaneously
exhibiting both p-type and n-type semiconductor characteristics. The
pyrimidopyrimidine derivatives may be spin-coated at room, or ambient,
temperature when applied to the fabrication of an electronic device, for
example, organic thin film transistors. Organic thin film transistors
using the pyrimidopyrimidine derivatives may provide higher charge
carrier mobility and/or lower off-state leakage current.
