Integrated circuits based on low cost polymer electronics — •Klaus Schmidt, Andreas Ullmann, Markus Böhm, Jürgen Krumm, Robert Blache, Alexander Knobloch, Dietmar Zipperer, and Walter Fix — PolyIC GmbH & Co. KG, Fürth, Germany

It is expected that low-cost organic electronics will open a new mass market besides the already existing market for conventional and more expensive Si-based technology. We have fabricated different multi-bit RFID-Transponder based on polymer electronics. Polymer rectifiers working at 13.56 MHz and fast integrated organic circuits up to 0.6 MHz are demonstrated. A 64-bit transponder operating at a supply voltage of about 14V was realized based on poly-(3-hexylthiophene) as p-type semiconductor material with charge carrier mobility of about 0.02 cm2/Vs. The polymeric devices are very stable and exhibit high electrical performance and lifetime. Since the polymeric materials used for our devices are all soluble, it is possible to fabricate our electronic circuits by a cost efficient roll to roll printing process. Thus, completely high speed printed and low cost polymer electronics can be realized.
