Electrical Processes in Organic Thin Film Devices A one-stop
examination of fundamental electrical behaviour in organic
electronic device architectures In 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, and metal/molecule contacts A
systematic guide to the operating principles of
metal/insulator/semiconductor structures and the field effect A set
of problems (with solutions on-line) for each chapter of the book
Perfect for electronics developers and researchers in both industry
and academia who study and work with molecular and nanoscale
electronics, Electrical Processes in Organic Thin Film Devices also
deserves a place in the libraries of undergraduate and postgraduate
students in courses on molecular electronics, organic electronics,
and plastic electronics.
