Organic semiconductor devices have a lower intrinsic carrier density than inorganic semiconductors, and improving their electrical conductivity is important for organic electronic devices. Further theoretical investigations and understanding the properties of these electronic devices are necessary to improve the electrical conductivity of organic devices. In this study, we demonstrate how two carbon-material-assisted organic semiconductor devices affect the electrical conductivity and charge mechanism by using electrical measurements (i.e., I–V and C–V measurements, and numerical simulations). To clearly demonstrate the enhancement of the charge injection into TIPS (6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)-pentacene), we studied the blending effect of carbon materials (carbon nanotube and fullerene) in TIPS and discussed injection, transport and charge accumulation of hole and electron in relation to trapped charge. This study will be helpful for understanding charge mechanisms in composite organic semiconductor devices.
