Abstract We report the effects of instability with gate dielectrics of pentacene thin film transistors (OTFTs) inverter circuits. We used to the UV sensitive curable resin and poly-4-vinylphenol(PVP) by gate dielectrics. The inverter supply bias is VDD= -40 V. For a given dielectric thickness and applied voltage, pentacene OTFTs with inverter circuits measurements field effect mobility, on-off current ratio, Vth. The field effect mobility 0.03~0.07 cm2/Vs, and the threshold voltage is -3.3 V ~ -8.8 V. The on- and off-state currents ratio is about 103~106. From the OTFT device and inverter circuit measurement, we observed hysteresis behavior was caused by interface states of between the gate insulator and the pentacene semiconductor layer.
