In organic chemistry, OTS stands for Organic Thin Film Transistor. It is a type of field-effect transistor that uses organic materials as the semiconductor layer. These materials are typically composed of carbon-based molecules or polymers, which can be processed into thin films. OTS devices are known for their flexibility, lightweight, and potential for low-cost production, making them suitable for applications in flexible displays, sensors, and other electronic devices.
Organic Thin Film Transistors are a key component in the development of organic electronics, which aim to create electronic devices that are more environmentally friendly and easier to manufacture than traditional silicon-based electronics. The use of organic materials allows for the production of devices that can be bent, folded, or even stretched, opening up new possibilities for innovative electronic applications.
