Workshop 1.1: Organic Electronic Materials. Concepts and Applications
08:30-12:00 Monday 24 September 2007
This preconference workshop explains the basic concepts that participants will need to understand the fundamentals of organic electronic materials. Furthermore the operation of the principal organic-semiconductor based devices such as field-effect transistors, light-emitting diodes, solar cells will be described. Finally, the principal printing methodologies and recent developments in low-temperature inorganic/transparent semiconductor deposition will be presented.
The workshop will cover the following topics:
- Organic Electronic Materials. Introduction
- Semiconductors
- Structure and basic principles
- Charge transport and optical properties
- Small molecules, polymers, and hybrid semiconductors
- Structural organization versus electrical and optical properties
- Dielectrics
- Inorganic, polymers, and self-assembled mono/multilayers
- Critical parameters affecting OFET performance
- Surface treatments, interfacial effects
- Conductors
- Metals and conducting polymers, contacts and charge injection issues
- Organic Field-Effect Transistor, Light-Emitting Diodes, Light-Emitting Transistors, and Solar Cells
- Device structure and operation principles; comparison to Si technologies
- Film microstructure and morphology versus device performance
- Device characterization and parameter extraction
- Techniques for film deposition and patterning
- Low-Temperature Deposition/ Transparent Inorganics
- Amorphous/poly silicon, transparent oxide
- Printing Technologies
- Flexography, Gravure, Pad, Inkjet
- References
- Upcoming Conferences, Symposia, Workshops
