Large Area and Flexible Electronics - Mario Caironi

. .

Résumé :
From materials to applications, this ready reference covers the entire value chain from fundamentals via processing right up to devices, presenting different approaches to large-area electronics, thus enabling readers to compare materials, properties and performance. Divided into two parts, the first focuses on the materials used for the electronic functionality, covering organic and inorganic semiconductors, including vacuum and solution-processed metal-oxide semiconductors, nanomembranes and nanocrystals, as well as conductors and insulators. The second part reviews the devices and applications of large-area electronics, including flexible and ultra-high-resolution displays, light-emitting transistors, organic and inorganic photovoltaics, large-area imagers and sensors, non-volatile memories and radio-frequency identification tags. With its academic and industrial viewpoints, this volume provides in-depth knowledge for experienced researchers while also serving as a first-stop resource for those entering the field.

Biographie:
Mario Caironi is a Team Leader at the Center for Nanoscience and Technology in Milan, Italy, of the Italian Institute of Technology. He obtained his PhD in 2007 from the University of Milan and then joined Henning Sirringhaus' group at the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge, UK, to work on inkjet-printed, downscaled organic field-effect transistors (OFET) and on charge injection and transport in high-mobility polymers. He current research interests are on direct-writing and roll-to-roll processes for organic optoelectronics, on the device physics of OFETs and in molecular junction-based optoelectronic devices. Yong-Young Noh is Associate Professor in the Department of Energy and Materials Engineering at Dongguk University in Seoul, Republic of Korea. He received his PhD in 2005 from the Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST), Republic of Korea, and then worked at the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge, UK, as a postdoctoral associate with Henning Sirringhaus from 2005 to 2007. Afterwards he worked at the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), Republic of Korea, as a senior researcher from 2008 to 2009, and at Hanbat National University as assistant professor from 2010 to 2012. Yong-Young Noh has expertise in organic and printed electronics, especially printed OFETs, oxide TFTs and OLEDs.
