I am really grateful to the Inamori Research Grant for giving me the opportunity to study this subject. I will reveal the mechanism of the molecular orientation and realize high-performance organic electronics devices.
Polar organic semiconductor molecules spontaneously form orientation polarization during a vacuum deposition process. This study developed novel pola molecules exhibiting a suraface potential growth rate over 200 mV/nm using a trifluoromethylphenyl unit to induce spontaneous orientation in vacuum deposited films. The strong spontaneous polarization originated from a large molecular dipole moment and a high glass transition temperature resulting ordered dipole orientations.
