| TFYY69 | Organic Electronics. From Molecules to Materials, 4,5 ECTS credits. /Organisk elektronik, från molekyler till material/ |
||
Prel. scheduled
hours: 36 |

|
Area of Education: Science Subject area: Physics |
|||
| Advancement level
(A-D): C
|
|||
| Aim: Enable the student to understand the basic principles that make semi-conducting polymers useful in electronic applications. Note that the course is a evolution of the previous course named "Atomic and Molecular Physics", denoted TFFY61. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) TFFY17 Modern Physics, TFFY54 Quantum Mechanics II Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Supplementary courses: Organic Electronics: Materials to components, See www.nobel.se, Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2000. |
|||
| Organisation: Lectures, lab visits, oral reports. |
|||
| Course contents: Starting with a brief review of hydrogen atom, the principles used in constructing simple models of the electronic structure of diatomic and small polyatomic molecules are developed, and extrapolated to polymer chains where electronic structure is determined using periodic boundary conditions. Principles of spectroscopic methods used in studies of electronic structure of molecules and semiconducting polymers are surveyed. Motivation to these studies, and an overview of emerging applications of semiconducting polymers in polymer-electronics, are provided. |
|||
| Course literature: Hand outs during lectures. |
|||
| Examination: | |||
| Oral reports on topics related to the lectures and subject matter of the course. (U,3,4,5) |
