1. Design Principles for Organic Semiconductors
-
Julia A. Schneider
Abstract
Designing organic semiconductors--whether polymers or small molecules--involves a myriad of synthetic choices. Every choice, from incorporating heteroatoms to substituents, effects the optoelectronic properties of the material, its morphology, and its ultimate device performance. This chapter presents the reader with current design strategies and known structure-property relationships. For context, this chapter also briefly discusses the history of the field, theories of charge transport, device applications, and concludes with a selection of reported organic semiconductors.
