Sublimed materials for organic electronic devices such of OFETs and OTFTs allow the achievement of better electronic properties, and may help increase a device’s lifetime.
Intrinsically stretchable active layers for organic field-effect transistors (OFET) are discussed. Polymer structural modification & post-polymerization modifications are 2 methods to achieve this.
Solution-processed organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs) have emerged as a promising clean energy generating technology due to their ease of fabrication, potential to enable low-cost manufacturing via printing or coating techniques, and ability to be incorporated onto light weight, flexible substrates.
