Abstract

A spontaneous activation method for self-aligned organic nanochannel transistors with organic conductive wires was developed. With the continuous application of an alternating electrical current through connected organic wires that did not exhibit field-effect transistor characteristics, n-channel field-effect transistor characteristics appeared with a decrease in the electrical conductance of the wires. In principle, this process spontaneously ceased without breaking the organic wires. The yield rate of self-aligned nanotransistors should be effectively improved by using this technique.
