Organic molecules are currently being investigated with regard to their application as active components in semiconductor devices. Whereas devices containing organic molecules for the generation of light - organic light emitting diodes (OLED) - have already reached the market (they e.g. display info

Abstract
To achieve high performance organic field effect transistors (OFETs) with enhanced currents, high switching speeds and improved integration density the channel length L is downscaled to the sub‐micrometer regime. The influence of important scaling parameters on the electrical performance of bottom contact devices is analyzed. High‐mobility oligo‐ and polythiophenes were used as semiconductor, which combine the advantages of highly ordered growth with processibility from solution. Devices with optimized parameters exhibit high switching frequencies beyond 2 MHz. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
