Organic and Hybrid Organic Electronics

This symposium will cover applied science and industrial contributions from speakers with a material or device background.  Abstracts submitted to this symposium should particularly include the structure-function relationship of the materials.

Oral and poster presentations are to include laboratory and industrial prototypes.  The prototypes can be either included in the talks or during special breaks of the symposium.  Due to the large MRS audience, this is a unique opportunity to attract the attention of an expert audience.  This prototype symposium is intended to emphasize the importance of the discussions between material and device experts, which is key for tailored material synthesis and successful realization of organic and hybrid organic electronics.

Session topics will include:

• Organic or hybrid photovoltaics
• Electrochromic devices
• Organic/hybrid:
  - electronics, in general
  - light-emitting diodes and electrochemical cells
  - photodiodes
  - field-effect transistors
  - displays
  - sensors

Joint sessions with the following symposia are being considered: K: Advanced Materials and Processes for “Systems-on-Plastic", W: Nanostructured Solar Cells, and Z: Conjugated Organic Materials for Energy Conversion, Energy Storage, and Charge Transport.

Invited speakers (tentative) include:

Seth Coe-Sullivan (QDVision), Dagobert de Leeuw (Philips Research, Netherlands), Peter Erk (BASF Corp.), Jens Hauch (Konarka Technologies), Alan Heeger (Univ. of California, Santa Barbara), Paul Heremans (IMEC, Belgium), Alex Jen (Univ. of Washington), Chung-Seock Kang (Kolon Industries, Korea), Junji Kido (Yamagata Univ., Japan), Changdong Kim (LG Display Co., Ltd., Korea), Jangjoo Kim (Seoul National Univ., Korea), Karl Leo (Fraunhofer IPMS, Germany), Iain McCulloch (Imperial College London, United Kingdom), John Reynolds (Univ. of Florida), Ted Sargent (InVisage, Inc./Univ. of Toronto, Canada), Günther Schmid (Siemens, Germany), Rahul Sen (Nantero, Inc.), Sehwan Son (LG Chemical, Ltd., Korea), Sandro Tedde (Siemens, Germany), Ton van Mol (TNO Holst Centre, Netherlands), Chung-Chih Wu (National Taiwan Univ., Taiwan), Hyeyeon Yang (Samsung Advanced Inst. of Science and Technology, Korea), Yang Yang (Univ. of California, Los Angeles), Daisuke Yokoyama (Yamagata Univ., Japan).
