Aim:
The course aims to give an introduction to organic electronics. After having passed the course, the student is expected to be able to:
- Integrate knowledge in modern physics, mathematics and soft materials
- Explain and use basic models for electronic structure in organic electronic materials
- Explain and use basic models for optical absorption and luminescence in organic electronic materials
- Explain and use basic models for charge transport in organic electronic materials
- Explain and use basic models for charge injection in organic electronic materials
- Explain and use basic models for magnetoresistance in organic electronic materials and devices
- Explain and use basic models for electric and optical effects in organic electronic photovoltaic, electroluminescent and electrochromic devices
- Explain and use the interdependency of structural, electronic and optical properties in organic electronic materials
- Acquire and use knowledge from research literature
- Make an oral presentation using modern visual technology explaining a research paper to fellow students and demonstrate ability to offer constructive critique to an oral presentation
