This laboratory is targeting the fast evolving field of semiconducting and light emitting organic materials and devices. These materials can be regarded in many ways as plastics and hence the possibilities of having flexible screens on one hand and ink-jet printable electronics on the other. As this field is still at its early age we aim to cover material properties as well as device properties and cross correlate the two. New device configurations and new fabrication methods are among our primary goals since they not only advance the technology but also allow better insight into the material properties that are relevant and affect device performance.

To find out more of why this field is so exciting go to "Why Organics".

To get a feeling for the commercial interest go to "companies".

Which Technion courses  do I need to take – go to “undergrad courses”

Organization of Organic Lab

The lab belongs to the electrical engineering department in the Technion and it consists of two parts:

  1. Fabrication and processing of devices/materials
  2. Optical and Electrical Characterization

Location:

The labs are located within the nanoelectronic center- Technion and it adds the ability to work in an inert atmosphere (solution processing and metal/dielectric deposition) within a glove-box..If you like you could also view photos of our glove-box.
