Description
Organic semiconductors have attracted a great attention, and many research groups focus on their applications in electronic devices (solar cells, photodetectors, OLED, etc.) thanks to facile control of electronic and optical properties via molecular design, high absorption coefficient, mechanical flexibility, cost effectiveness, and so on. In particular, in order to achieve highly efficient photon-to-electron conversion devices based on organic semiconductors, namely organic solar cells and organic photodetectors, identifying device and material design rules is essential. This talk includes brief introduction of recently published results of 1) organic solar cells for indoor light harvesting and 2) single-component organic photodetectors using non-fullerene acceptors.
