Objectives of the Course Organic electronic is a branch of electronic which deals with conducting polymers and small molecules. The main difference of organic electronic from conventional electronic is the use of carbon based materials rather than inorganic materials such as silicone. Alan Mac Diarmid, Hideki Shirakawa and Alan Heeger got the Nobel Prize for their study on the invention and development of conducting polymers. Conducting polymers are lighter, more flexible and cheaper as compared to inorganic semiconductors. The objective of this course is the introduction of physical properties of this novel branch of electronic which drew world wide attention and opened a new road with a Nobel Prize.
