Number 14 (Story #2), December 27, 1990 by Phillip F. Schewe and Ben Stein ORGANIC TRANSISTORS are catching up to their amorphous-silicon counterparts with respect to charge carrier mobility, suggesting the possibility that thin-film organic circuits could be used in flat-screen, large-area display electronics, where cheap processing is essential. A group of scientists at the National Centre for Scientific Research in Paris have developed an all-organic transistor with a carrier-mobility of 0.43 cm2/V-s, "comparable to devices made for amorphous silicon."
