The program is an integrated research and teaching effort in the field of Organic Photonic Materials and Plastic Optoelectronic Technologies. The proposed research will focus on the study of charge-transfer in photorefractive polymers and light-emission in conjugated molecules and polymers. The research will consist of three major tasks that are highly connected. One area is the study of electronically engineered photorefractive polymers in which the relative energy of the frontier orbitals of the sensitizer, transport molecule, and the chromophore are controlled and systematically varied with the goal of developing new materials with sub-ms response times. The second area includes the development of photorefractive polymers based on two-photon absorption sensitizers. The third area includes fabrication, testing, and modeling of organic electroluminescent devices based on a new generation of photo-addressable molecules and polymers with controlled frontier orbital energies and good photochemical stability with emphasis of developing full color displays on plastic substrates.A broader goal of the program is to use the proposed multidisciplinary teaching approach as a vehicle to create equivalent curriculums in other universities and educate students for cross-disciplinary and knowledge-based career environment for the optoelectronics and information technology industry (specifically, low cost, light weight, flexible optoelectronic devices).This program will sustain and strengthen an existing partnership between scientists from several departments including Optical Sciences, the Departments of, Chemistry, Physics, and Materials Science and Engineering at The University of Arizona.

该项目是有机光子材料和塑料光电技术领域的综合研究和教学工作。拟议的研究将重点研究光折变聚合物中的电荷转移以及共轭分子和聚合物中的发光。该研究将包括三个高度关联的主要任务。其中一个领域是电子工程光折变聚合物的研究，其中敏化剂、传输分子和发色团的前沿轨道的相对能量受到控制并系统地变化，目标是开发具有亚毫秒响应时间的新材料。第二个领域包括基于双光子吸收敏化剂的光折变聚合物的开发。第三个领域包括基于新一代光可寻址分子和聚合物的有机电致发光器件的制造、测试和建模，这些器件具有受控的前沿轨道能量和良好的光化学稳定性，重点是在塑料基板上开发全彩显示器。该计划的更广泛目标是使用所提出的多学科教学方法作为工具，在其他大学创建等效课程并进行教育 该项目将维持和加强来自亚利桑那大学光学科学系、化学系、物理系、材料科学与工程系等多个系的科学家之间现有的合作伙伴关系。
