Abstract:

Worldwide, “organic electronic devices” such as OLEDs and solar cells have revolutionized the field of electronics; however, technological progress has been largely made by empirical research and development, while fundamental knowledge is often still incomplete.

This presentation will address the question, how structural order influences the optoelectronic properties of pi-conjugated materials, and how these properties can be improved via the use of templates for the optimization of devices. Our approach spans all the way from the design of appropriate pi-conjugated molecular building blocks and surface-active templates, investigation of surfaces and interfaces by different spectroscopies, fabrication of optoelectronic devices, and finally theoretically modelling.
