We investigated the injection and transport properties of pentacene organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) with inclined and lamellar pentacene grains at various mutual ratios. Although the threshold voltage was conserved and no additional trapping on grain boundaries was suggested from the current-voltage measurements, the contact resistance and mobility increased linearly with the lamellar phase content. We showed that a model based on the coupling between both transport and injection properties via a space charge field caused by injected and trapped carriers accounts for these results. © 2013 The Japan Society of Applied Physics.
