Abstract
: This study investigates the influence of surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS) concentration on the size and optoelectronic properties of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized via the mini-emulsion technique. P3HT NPs were fabricated with varying SDS concentrations. The size dependent optoelectronic properties, including the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and..... More

Abstract
In this study, we demonstrate high-performance optical wavelength-selective organic thin-film transistors (TFTs) that incorporate heterogeneous organic semiconductor materials, poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl) pentacene (TIPS-pentacene). The electrical characteristics of the fabricated transistors were analyzed in the dark to determine how the P3HT:TIPS-pentacene ratio of the semiconductor affected the performance of the..... More
