Overcoming Barriers For Organic Electronics
By David Orenstein in Science Daily, November 11 2009
Providing insight into a frustrating inconsistency in the performance of electronics made with organic materials, Stanford researchers have shown that the way boundaries between individual crystals in a film are aligned can make a 70-fold difference in how easily current, or electrical charges, can move through transistors.
The research, which could help engineers design better digital displays and other devices, was published online Nov. 8 in the journal Nature Materials.
