This chapter covers the potentially important conductive polymers and their benefits with effective relevance in number of growing technologies in telecommunication, biomolecular electronics, display devices, electrochemical storage systems, and many more. The most widely investigated polymers in practical applications are polythiophene (PTh), polypyrrole (PPy), and polyaniline (PANI). These po...

Computer modeling and simulation are crucial in understanding and controlling structure-property relations by explaining experimental data and by revealing critical conceptual issues about the underlying mechanisms whose resolution requires excessive experimentation. There is a great increasing demand in methodological development due to a high complexity of real-life nanotechnology systems of ...

Abstract The effective mimicry of neurons is key to the development neuromorphic electronics. However, artificial are not typically capable operating in biological environments, which limits their ability interface with components and offer realistic neuronal emulation. Organic based on conventional circuit oscillators have been created, but they require many elements for implementation. Here w...

The integration of electronic elements with biological systems, resulting in novel devices with unusual functionalities, attracts significant research efforts owing to fundamental scientific interest and the possible practical applications of such devices. The commonly used buzzword ‘‘bioelectronics’’ highlights the functional integration of two different areas of science and engineering – biol...

Molecular computation with DNA has great potential for low power, highly parallel information processing in a biological or biochemical context. However, significant challenges remain for the field of DNA computation. New technology is needed to allow multiplexed label-free readout and to enable regulation of molecular state without addition of new DNA strands. These capabilities could be provi...
