This is an exciting stage in the development of organic electronics. It is no longer an area of purely academic interest as increasingly real applications are being developed, some of which are beginning to come on-stream. Areas that have already been commercially developed or which are under intensive development include organic light emitting diodes (for flat panel displays and solid state lighting), organic photovoltaic cells, organic thin film transistors (for smart tags and flat panel displays) and sensors.Within the family of organic electronic materials, liquid crystals are relative newcomers. The first electronically conducting liquid crystals were reported in 1988 but already a substantial literature has developed. The advantage of liquid crystalline semiconductors is that they have the easy processability of amorphous and polymeric semiconductors but they usually have higher charge carrier mobilities. Their mobilities do not reach the levels seen in crystalline organics but they circumvent all of the difficult issues of controlling crystal growth and morphology. Liquid crystals self-organise, they can be aligned by fields and surface forces and, because of their fluid nature, defects in liquid crystal structures readily self-heal.With these matters in mind this is an opportune moment to bring together a volume on the subject of ‘Liquid Crystalline Semiconductors’. The field is already too large to cover in a comprehensive manner so the aim has been to bring together contributions from leading researchers which cover the main areas of the chemistry (synthesis and structure/function relationships), physics (charge transport mechanisms and optical properties) and potential applications in photovoltaics, organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic field-effect transistors (OFETs).This book will provide a useful introduction to the field for those in both industry and academia and it is hoped that it will help to stimulate future developments.

Properties of Fluorite Structure Materials


Free Download Peter Vajda, "Properties of Fluorite Structure Materials "
English | ISBN: 1624174582 | 2013 | 195 pages | PDF | 110 MB
The present work focuses on two fluorite-structured groups of materials: the hydrides of the rare earths (and actinides) and several specificmetal oxides, and is authored by researchers among the most competentand active in the field. By contrast to the classical "historic"alkaline-earth halides, non-stoichiometry appears as a key issue forboth groups treated here. The former group has attracted particularlyclose attention because of its possible candidature as hydrogen storagematerial within the vast prospect of the clean energy economy. In thesecond group, a chapter is devoted to the (antifluorite-type) lithiumoxide, a candidate for (super)ionic batteries (again interesting for the clean energy technology) and as a tritium "breeder" in fusion reactorwalls. Finally, two more chapters are dedicated to the radiation effects on actinide dioxides (like uranium dioxide), and yttria-stabilizedzirconium dioxide which is envisioned as an inert confinement matrix for actinide transmutation in nuclear reactors.

Quantum Theory of Transport Properties of Single Molecules


Free Download Quantum Theory of Transport Properties of Single Molecules
English | 2025 | ISBN: 9814267317 | 570 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 63 MB
The quantum transport theory, which dates back to the time of the Landauer theory in the field of mesoscopic physics, is now expanding its power on materials science and chemistry by earning chemical accuracy and physical reality and has become a new subject of non-equilibrium quantum transport theory for charge and heat at nanoscale. This growing subject invites cross-disciplinary developments, for example, the local heating theory developed earlier was examined and applied to the self-heating problem in the field of semiconductor- and nanoelectronic-device physics. This book compiles 25 key published papers to provide readers with convenient and comprehensive access to the important results and developments in the field. The book will appeal to a wide range of readers from varied backgrounds, especially those involved in charge- and/or heat-transport problems that widely spread over various subjects in materials science, chemistry, electric engineering, and condensed matter physics.
