Zusammenfassung: | © 2021 Wiley-VCH GmbH. The growing demand for ubiquitous data collection has driven the development of sensing technologies with local data processing. As a result, solution-processed semiconductors are widely employed due to their compatibility with low-cost additive manufacturing on a wide range of substrates. However, to fully realize their potential in sensing applications, high-performance scalable analog amplifiers must be realized. Here, ohmic-contact-gated transistors (OCGTs) based on solution-processed semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes are introduced to address this unmet need. This new device concept enables output current saturation in the short-channel limit without compromising output current drive. The resulting OCGTs are used in common-source amplifiers to achieve the highest width-normalized output current (≈30 µA µm-1 ) and length-scaled signal gain (≈230 µm-1 ) to date for solution-processed semiconductors. The utility of these amplifiers for emerging sensing technologies is demonstrated by the amplification of complex millivolt-scale analog biological signals including the outputs of electromyography, photoplethysmogram, and accelerometer sensors. Since the OCGT design is compatible with other solution-processed semiconducting materials, this work establishes a general route to high-performance, solution-processed analog electronics |
