Author Description

Rapid progress in electronic and optical molecular and polymeric materials has made them key enablers for novel photonic, electronic, and optoelectronic device applications. These applications are broad and include smart cards, flat-panel displays, light-emitting diodes, transistors, photovoltaics, photorefractivity, and optical coatings, to mention just a few. This book brings together researchers from the applied as well as the fundamental areas of materials and device fabrication to offer an interdisciplinary and international perspective on areas related to organic electronics and optoelectronics. Topics include: organic light-emitting materials - synthesis, devices, interfaces and charge transport; organic transistors - materials and devices; organic and hybrid photovoltaics - materials and devices; and organic materials - nonlinear optics, polymerization, structural aspects, hybrid materials and characterization.
