Organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) were fabricated based on the double polymeric insulators consisting of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polystyrene (PS). The using of double dielectric layers exhibited an improved device performance comparing with the conventional devices with single dielectric layer. By exposing the polymer insulating layer (PS) under ultraviolet (UV) light for different times (0, 5, 10 and 15 min), the surface properties of the PS film has been further optimized for the growth of pentacene. The grain size and crystallization of pentacene film grown on PS are apparently improved as the increase of surface energy of PS. As a result, a field-effect mobility of 1.38 cm2 V−1 S−1 and an on/off current ratio of 104 had been obtained by UV treatment for 10 min. All results indicate the surface energy of dielectric layer is a crucial factor to influence the devices performance that can be well tuned by UV treatment. The polymeric materials pair consisting of PS and PVA is a promised candidate as the dielectric layers for high-performance OTFTs.
