GRK 1404: Self-organised Materials for Optoelectronics

在国际研究培训小组内，来自美因茨大学和马克斯·普朗克聚合物研究所的德国科学家以及来自首尔国立大学和汉南大学的韩国科学家将共同致力于新材料和基础科学的研究，这些材料和基础科学是光电子学至关重要的，例如显示器和光伏太阳能电池。在这个框架内，我们打算首先集中在用于所需光电子功能的自组织结构方面。这是因为自组织允许形成和优化高度有序和定向的结构，以最大化所需的光电性能，这是随机结构材料所不可能做到的。因此，许多自组织原理，包括液晶相和嵌段共聚物，将被用来获得所需的功能。我们将集中讨论的另一个主题是界面现象，它是最相关的器件特性的基础，并决定电荷注入和/或电荷分离。

Within the International Research Training Group, German scientists from the University of Mainz and the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research and Korean scientists from the Seoul National University and Hannam University will join to work on new materials and basic science, critically needed for optoelectronics, e.g. displays and photovoltaic solar cells. Within this framework it is our intention to concentrate firstly on the aspect of self-organised structures for the desired optoelectronic functions. This is because the self-organisation allows the formation and optimisation of highly ordered and oriented structures to maximise the desired optoelectronic properties, that is not possible with randomly structured materials. Therefore, a number of self-organisation principles, including liquid crystalline phases and block copolymers, will be used to obtain the desired functions. The additional topic, on which we will concentrate, are interfacial phenomena, which underlie the most relevant device characteristics and determine charge injection and/ or charge separation.
