The scientific community is poised to make significant technological breakthroughs that will enable the advancement of flexible, lightweight, low-cost electronic devices such as photovoltaics, light emitting diodes and field-effect transistors. Conjugated organic materials, such as carbon nanotubes conjugated polymers, are at the core of these emerging technologies, therefore, great effort is dedicated to their assembly and functionalization. The research proposed here will build on Prof. Schipper strong background in synthetic chemistry applied to conjugated materials to make breakthroughs that will advance nascent technologies. Cutting-edge bottom-up synthetic approaches will provide solutions to long-standing and critical problems in organic electronic applications.
