Organic Semiconductor and its applications
[attachment=17892]
Why Organic? Advantages
They are also biodegradable (being made from carbon).
This opens the door to many exciting and advanced new applications that would be impossible using copper or silicon.
Why not Organic? Disadvantages
Conductive polymers have high resistance and therefore are not good conductors of electricity.
Because of poor electronic behavior (lower mobility), they have much smaller bandwidths.
Shorter lifetimes and are much more dependant on stable environment conditions than inorganic electronics would be.
One of the biggest applications of organic transistors right now.
Organic TFTs may be used to drive LCDs and potentially even OLEDs, allowing integration of entire displays on plastic.
