Abstract

Disclosed are organic thin film transistors that can be either n-channel or p-channel transistors, depending on biasing conditions. Such transistors are expected to find wide use in complementary circuits. A specific embodiment of the inventive transistor comprises a 15 nm thick layer of .alpha.-6T with a 40 nm thick layer of C.sub.60 thereon. The latter was protected against degradation by the ambient by means of an appropriate electrically inert layer, specifically by a 40 nm .alpha.-6T layer.
