Physics and Technology of Organic Semiconductor Devices：VOLUME1115

Organic semiconductors differ from more conventional kinds by being held together by van der Waals forces rather than covalent bonds, and so have narrow electronic bandwidths, and charge carriers that are localized and have smaller mobilities. The 28 papers discuss them from such perspectives as the role of spontaneous charge transfer in the Bardeen limit and non-integer S regimes at organic/metal interfaces, quasi-static modeling approach to metal-organic semiconductor-metal devices, laboratory teaching modules on organic electronics and liquid crystal displays for undergraduate and graduate education, the impact of gate metal work function on device performance of organic thin film transistors, organic triplet exciton emission and quenching processes by low-temperature photoluminscence and electroluminescence spectroscopy, and organic three-dimensional field-effect transistors.
