Organic, Molecular, and Nanostructured Electronics2009-06-08 - 2009-06-12MIT Campus | Cambridge, MA Examine the use of organic thin films in active organic devices - including organic LEDs, solar cells, photodetectors, transistors, chemical sensors and memory cells. Then make your own active organic devices in the lab. A text will be provided. This course will review basic concepts underlying the design, fabrication, and operation of three dominant types of organic electronic devices: light emitting devices (OLEDs), photosensitive devices (solar cells and photodetectors), and field effect transistors (OFETs). We will also discuss, but devote less time to, organic lasers, organic memories, and chemical sensors. The course aims to present a broad and practical survey of the field and to immerse you in the broad field of organic materials. As a sub-class of nanostructured solids, organic thin films exemplify challenges of the practical nanotechnologies. Many concepts presented in the class are directly transferable to a broader field of nanostructured materials. Registration Deadline * We recommend applying by April 27th to reserve your place.
