1. Fundamental Studies
Notably optically and electrically detected magnetic resonance (ODMR and EDMR, respectively) of p-conjugated materials & OLEDs. Our fundamental studies address the role of polarons, triplet excitons, and intrinsic defects, on the properties of the films and devices.
2. (Combinatorial) fabrication and studies of OLEDs
OLEDs are now emerging in commercial devices; the current challenges are to improve the lifetime and efficiency of the devices, and develop organic injection lasers.
3. OLED's
Development of structurally integrated organic light-emitting device (OLED)/luminescent chemical and biological sensors. This new sensor platform may revolutionize the science and technology of chemical and biological sensors, ultimately leading to very inexpensive (almost disposable) microarrays of such sensors.
