Main professor: Dr. Jean-Manuel Raimundo (Aix – Marseille University)


Objectives: This course aims at introducing the student to modern organic electronic applications. The field of organic semiconductor based electronics has seen significant and unprecedented progress in the past decades. Low-cost, less energy intensive and high-throughput production, implementation on flexible and non-planar surfaces, novel applications, as well as the potential to move to more environmentally friendly electronics have made this technology very attractive. Wide ranges of applications are being currently explored, and in some areas have matured and have moved into production or are into industrial development.

The course will review basic concepts of physics and chemistry underlying the design factors, the structure-property relationship, fabrication and operation in the most common electronic device applications. The course will start with an introduction to conventional microelectronics: physics of inorganic semiconductors, description and operating mode of the most common devices (diodes,



transistors). Based on specific examples, the course will delineate in what organic electronic devices differ from their inorganic counterparts. Then, the course will focus on the factors governing the physical properties based notably on the chemical structures (molecules versus oligomers and polymers) their structure-property relationship and the design factors that should be taken into account for specific applications. Finally a selection of industrial applications will be presented as well as some aspects of the prospective and ongoing research development.



Physics of semiconductor devices: properties of semiconductors materials, metal-semiconductor junction; metal insulator-semiconductor junction and field-effect transistors.

Physical chemistry of conjugated and organic materials: definition; energy diagram, mechanisms of electronic transport. Organic electronic devices: fabrication, operating mode performance.

Charge transfer and charge transport properties of such systems will be described

It will present several basic supra-molecular systems and their proposed utilization as molecular machines or as switching components in molecular devices. It will show how electrochemical switching can be used in such devices and how nanoelectrochemistry makes it possible to elaborate nano-objects or to understand nanostructured surfaces.

Scanning Electrochemical Microscope (SECM), a nanoelectrochemistry local probe technique based on the use of microelectrodes and more recently nanoelectrodes will be presented and it will be shown that it is capable of revealing the charge transfer dynamic of nano-objects or of a nanostructured surface.

Electrochemical techniques for generating nanogaps and contacting few molecules leading to stable redox gated molecular junctions will be presented.

Another aspect of this course will be the use of bio systems in bio electrochemistry in enzymatic and redox catalytic systems. A detailed introduction to molecular and biomolecular electrochemistry, both in terms of concepts and techniques will be presented, in order to study complex processes and reactions involving electron transfer and coupled chemical reactions, in small organic molecules as well as in more complex biological molecules, like, e.g., redox enzymes or proteins, and DNA.
