2. Current Problems
• Organic light emitting diodes are used in cellphone,
batteries, photovoltaic technologies, and other
organic electronics
– Transistors are crucial to these devices.
• Currently, thin film transistors are used for display
technology.
– There is a growing sub-segment that consists of organic
thin film transistors
3. • Novel method for production of charge mobility layer in organic
thin film transistors
– Utilize solution to improve the growth of TIPS pentacene films
– Employs thermal gradient to promote proper crystal growth
• Allows for air stability, easy to process, and good charger carrier
mobility
• Mobility measurements conducted on films show order of
magnitude improvement of the mobility, 0.05 cm2/V s when
compared to 0.004 cm2/V s for non-annealed films.

Editor's Notes
Make sure to list references for all numbers, trends, etc. on each slide. Many inventors like to see exactly where the data comes from.
Should read like Wikipedia entry. Try to focus on the high points.
