Organic ferroelectric opto-electronic memories

Organic non-volatile memories from ferroelectric phase-separated blends.

New non-volatile memories are being investigated to keep up with the organic-electronics road map. Ferroelectric polarization is an attractive physical property as the mechanism for non-volatile switching, because the two polarizations can be used as two binary levels. However, in ferroelectric capacitors the read-out of the polarization charge is destructive. The functionality of the targeted ...

Electronic Processes at Organic-Organic Interfaces: Insight from Modeling and Implications for Opto-Electronic Devices

Electronic processes at organic:organic interfaces: Insight from modeling and implications for opto-electronic devices Interfacial effects play a key role in the electronic and optical processes taking place in opto-electronic devices. Here, we review recent modeling works dealing with the study of the local geometric and electronic structures at organic:organic interfaces and how such interfac...

Scalable Opto-Electronic Network (SOENet)

In applications such as processor-memory interconnect, I/O networks, and router switch fabrics, an interconnection network must be scalable to thousands of high-bandwidth terminals while at the same time being economical in small configurations and robust in the presence of single-point faults. Emerging optical technology enables new topologies by allowing links to cover large distances but at ...

MOF-based electronic and opto-electronic devices.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of hybrid materials with unique optical and electronic properties arising from rational self-assembly of the organic linkers and metal ions/clusters, yielding myriads of possible structural motifs. The combination of order and chemical tunability, coupled with good environmental stability of MOFs, are prompting many research groups to explore the poss...
