Self-assembled molecular monolayers are inevitable for nano-scaled organic electronic devices [1, 2]. Non-contact atomic force microscopy (nc-AFM) in combination with Kelvin-probe force microscopy (KPFM) yields access to information about structural and electronic properties of such self-assembled monolayers [3].
In the present study, we investigate thiophene derivatives for their perspective use in organic field-effect transistors. Dihexylsexithiophene (DHST) monolayers are prepared by physical vapour deposition on TiO2 and SiO2 substrates having source/drain gold electrode structures. In situ high resolution KPFM and topography measurements of operating OFET devices are shown and discussed with respect to their future suitability.
