Funded Activity Summary

Next generation organic electronic and optoelectronic device fabrication facility. This application will establish a unique facility to fabricate a new generation of plastic electronic devices. Whilst organic devices have been proposed for several years, a series of breakthroughs in the development of fabrication technologies in the last year have produced novel inexpensive solar cells, lasers, transistors and superconducting electronic devices made from organic materials. At present there is no facility to fabricate these devices in Australia, although the potential market for optoelectronic applications exceeds US$12 billion. The proposed facility will enable Australia to actively partake in the development of this new technology at its early stages.
