Abstract
Organic ion-sensitive field-effect transistors assembled on flexible plastic films have been fabricated. A thin Mylar™ foil acts both as substrate and gate dielectric. The active layer is vacuum-sublimed on one side of the foil, prepatterned with bottom-contact Au source and drain electrodes. The opposite side of the insulating film is in contact with an electrolytic solution that together with a reference electrode forms an ionic gate. A sensitivity of the device to the pH of the electrolyte solution has been observed. Thanks to the flexibility of the substrate and the low cost of the employed technology, this device opens the way for flexible sensors that can be employed in a variety of innovative applications.
