The current version 2.04.01 of the oTFT compact model level 2 also supports other effects, such as channel conductance modulation (analogous to the channel length modulation in MOS transistors) and Ohmic and non-linear leakages. Quasi-static charge sub-model supports frequency and temporal response by AC and transient simulations. The model is with default values of parameters for organic thin-film transistors, but otherwise, the oTFT models are also applicable to other thin-film transistors (TFTs). Just the model parameters are with other values. The oTFT models are ?mirror? of the TFT structure. In the TFT structure and oTFT model, one distinguishes an intrinsic TFT between intrinsic nodes GI, SI, DI, and the intrinsic TFT is connected to the device terminals (gate G, source S, drain D) by contacts of significant impacts. Conceptually, the oTFT models are arranged so that the sub-model components can be changed, replaced, removed or upgraded, as the needs evolve. The oTFT models are hierarchical. The top hierarchical level is module oTFT, in which there are ?rails? for interconnection of the sub-models and instantiations of the sub-models between the rails. One rail is with the device terminals G,S,D and another rail is with the internal nodes GI,SI,DI. There is also a control rail with overdrive voltages VGTS=(VG-VT-VS) and VGTD=(VG-VT-VD) at the channel ends of the intrinsic TFT. In the current Verilog-A code, there is a rail with nodes testGND, testSIGNAL for monitoring of internal quantities. The advantages of the hierarchical structure are several, but perhaps the most practical advantage is that the sub-models are simple, and well tied to diverse physical interpretations. Therefore, the oTFT model can be managed by researches far from the field of compact modeling and semiconductors, e.g., researchers in chemistry. The oTFT model is arranged so that the different effects can be suppressed by setting model parameters to specific values, usually, equal to zero.
