Organic Microelectronics and Optoelectronics Workshop IV

July 7-10, 2008
Marriott San Francisco
55 4th Street
San Francisco, CA 94103
A Joint Workshop of ACS | IEEE | MRS
Invited Speakers | Chairs | Program

The workshop brought together a broad spectrum of chemists, materials scientists, physicists, and engineers from both industry and academia in a stimulating forum to share information and ideas in the emerging fields of Organic Microelectronics and Optoelectronics. The goal is to build an interdisciplinary community working on applications such as RFIDs, displays, sensors, photovoltaics and optical devices while addressing some of the common scientific and manufacturing challenges to help these technologies advance in a more rapid, effective, and economical manner.

The technical program focused on the areas of synthesis, theory, novel processing/ patterning/fabrication and device physics through a series of presentations by renowned invited speakers and poster sessions. (We invite you to view the workshop program and abstracts and this welcome message from the Meeting Chairs.)

INVITED SPEAKERS

Paul Alivisatos (University of California - Berkeley, California), Marc Baldo (MIT, Massachusetts), Neil Greenham (Cambridge University, UK), Oliver Hayden (Siemens-Germany), Jack Hou (ITRI-Taiwan), Tom Jackson (Pennsylvania State University, Pennsylvania), Zakya Kafafi (National Science Foundation, Virginia), Antoine Kahn (Princeton University, New Jersey), Jiro Kasahara (Sony, Japan), Sang Yoon Lee (Samsung, Korea), Karl Leo (TU-Dresden, Germany), David Lidzey (Sheffield Univ., United Kingdom), Tobin Marks (Northwestern University, Illinois), Colin Nuckolls (Columbia University, New York), Ian Parker (DuPont Displays), Peter Peumans (Stanford University, California), Mark Reed (Yale University, Connecticut), Heike Riel (IBM Zurich, Switzerland), Henning Sirringhaus (PlasticLogic-UK), Robert Street (PARC (Xerox), California), Xiaoyang Zhu (University of Minnesota, Minnesota)

The first evening set the stage with an open discussion on whether organic-based devices will ever make it beyond 'promising', featuring presentations by two well known electrical engineers: Tom Jackson (Penn State) and Mark Reed (Yale).
