摘要

The precise patterning of highly ordered organic semiconductor (OSC) thin-film arrays is paramount for advancing next-generation electronic devices. Herein, we report a ladder-like polysilsesquioxane (LPSQ) strategy to synthesize two functional analogs with tunable surface energies and robust dielectric properties. These LPSQ dielectrics, functionalized with alkyl or fluoroalkyl side chains, serve a dual role as both gate insulators and patterning layers to guide the blade-coating of 2,7-dioctyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (C8-BTBT). This approach yields highly aligned arrays suitable for three-dimensional integration in flexible electronics. The synergistic combination of dense LPSQ dielectric packing and aligned semiconductor domains leads to excellent organic thin-film transistor (OTFT) performance, achieving an approximately four-fold improvement in field-effect mobility compared to conventional standard silicon oxide dielectrics. Moreover, the patterned LPSQ dielectrics enable high-resolution C8-BTBT patterning on plastic substrates, supporting the 4-inch-scale 3D integration of flexible logic circuits, including inverters (voltage gain >100), NOR gates, and NAND gates.
