Abstract:

This chapter gives an overview of organic materials, focusing on molecular materials for use in optoelectronic devices such as organic photoreceptors, organic photovoltaic devices (OPVs), and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). A description of the historical development of organic optoelectronics is provided. This is followed by a review of the principles and operation processes involved in such optoelectronic devices and the molecular materials for use in such devices. Finally, device structures and performance are discussed.
