Organic Thermoelectrics: Materials Preparation, Performance Optimization, and Device Integration

Recent developments in nanostructured materials for high-performance thermoelectrics

Organic pyroelectric materials for device applications

The wide range of applications of thermal imaging devices existing in military, industrial and space fields attract researchers to study pyroelectric materials which exhibit a temperature-dependent spontaneous polarisation. A brief review of pyroelectricity, pyroelectric materials and some commercial applications of these materials we will be given in this paper.

Organic Field-Effect Transistor: Device Physics, Materials, and Process

Organic field-effect transistors have received much attention in the area of low cost, large area, flexible, and printable electronic devices. Lots of efforts have been devoted to achieve comparable device performance with high charge carrier mobility and good air stability. Meanwhile, in order to reduce the fabrication costs, simple fabrication conditions such as the printing techniques have b...

Device Structures and Materials for Organic Light Emitting Diodes

Organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) are promising candidates for light-weight color flat panel displays. Different device structures with emission in the blue, green, and red spectral region are discussed with respect to their optical and electrical characteristics. Blue OLEDs based on OXD-8 as emitter molecule show quantum efficiencies of 0.9 % (2.2 cd/A, 0.6 lm/W), green emitting devices b...

In-situ device integration of large-area patterned organic nanowire arrays for high-performance optical sensors

Single-crystalline organic nanowires (NWs) are important building blocks for future low-cost and efficient nano-optoelectronic devices due to their extraordinary properties. However, it remains a critical challenge to achieve large-scale organic NW array assembly and device integration. Herein, we demonstrate a feasible one-step method for large-area patterned growth of cross-aligned single-cry...
