Optimization of organic semiconductors

article
Organic semiconducting materials are now being investigated as active materials in light emitting diodes, photovoltaic cells, plastic electronics, etc. Important issues concerning the materials common to all areas, are processability, purity, reproducibility, stability and control over morphology. Big improvement in device fabrication, initial performance and lifetime can be obtained by careful control over polymer synthesis and/or small changes in chemical composition. Often, different routes are available towards the `same' material, but device characteristics can differ many orders of magnitude. Examples of this effect will be discussed.
