Discovery Projects - Grant ID: DP160100700

Funded Activity Summary

Light Emitting Transistors: A New Route to Digital Displays and Lasers. This project intends to create new light-emitting display technology with the potential to offer much cheaper, recyclable, and mechanically flexible semiconductors. Organic light-emitting field effect transistors are an emerging class of integrated optoelectronic device with dual functionalities (ie a light emitting and a switch transistor in single device structure). The dual-functioned devices provide a promising pathway to much more economical display technologies and tunable organic lasers. The principal goal of this project is to develop a new route to achieve simplified display pixels and electrically pumped organic lasers by using organic light-emitting transistors platform with new organic chromophores. The new semiconductors could be easily integrated into a wide range of applications such as telecommunications, biomedical and consumer electronics.
