Summary:A one-stop examination of fundamental electrical behaviour in organic electronic device architecturesIn Electrical Processes in Organic Thin Film Devices: From Bulk Materials to Nanoscale Architectures, distinguished researcher Michael C. Petty delivers an in-depth treatment of the electrical behaviour of organic electronic devices focused on first principles. The author describes the fundamental electrical behaviour of various device architectures and offers an introduction to the physical processes that play a role in the electrical conductivity of organic materials.Beginning with band theory, the text moves on to address the effects of thin film device architectures and nanostructures.
The book discusses the applications to devices currently in the marketplace, like displays, as well as those under development (transistors, solar cells, and memories).Electrical Processes in Organic Thin Film Devices also describes emerging organic thin film architectures and explores the potential for single molecule electronics and biologically inspired devices.
Finally, the book also includes:* A detailed introduction to electronic and vibrational states in organic solids, including classical band theory, disordered semiconductors, and lattice vibrations* Comprehensive explorations of electrical conductivity, including electronic and ionic processes, carrier drift, diffusion, the Boltzmann Transport Equation, excess carriers, recombination, doping, and superconductivity* An overview of important electro-active organic materials, like molecular crystals, charge-transfer complexes, conductive polymers, carbon nanotubes, and graphene* Practical considerations of defects and nanoscale phenomena, including transport processes in low-dimensional systems, surfaces and interface states* In-depth examinations of metal contacts, including ohmic contacts, the Schottky Barrier,
