This book comprehensively describes organic electronic devices developed in the past decades. It not only covers the mainstream devices including organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic photovoltaics (OPVs), and organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) but also includes devices of recent interest such as organic immune transistors, organic photocatalysis devices, and themoelectrical devices. The book starts from the introduction of basic theory of organic semiconductor materials and devices, which acquaints the readers with the concepts of each type of device described in the following chapters. It also discusses the working principles, device layout, and fabrication process of these devices. The book is intended for undergraduate and postgraduate students who are interested in organic electronics, researchers/engineers working in the field of organic electronic devices/systems.The electronic process in organic electronics materials.- The fundamentals of organic photochemistry and photophysics.- Organic light emitting diodes.- Organic field effect transistors.- Organic photovoltaic devices.- Organic semiconductor laser.-Organic electrochemical devices and bio-applications.- Organic photocatalytic materials and devices.- Organic thermoelectric devices.- Organic memory and synaptic devices.- Organic-inorganic hybrid devices - Perovskite based devices.
Dr. Guangye Zhang graduated from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) with a bachelors degree in materials physics in 2009 and received his Ph.D. degree in chemistry in 2015 from University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), for his study in the field of organic photovoltaics under the direction of Professor Benjamin Schwartz. He worked as a postdoctoral fellow and then a research assistant professor in Professor He (Henry) Yans group at Hong Kong University of Science and Techlă>
