Description

Revealing Order in Organic Semiconductors with Cryo-Electron Microscopy. This project aims to utilise cryo-electron microscopy as a disruptive tool to uncover the functional microstructure of organic semiconductor devices. The project expects to generate new knowledge of how structure relates to processing and function in organic semiconductor devices by utilising the ability of cryo-electron microscopy to image organic samples with high resolution, high contrast, low beam damage and in their true operating conditions. Expected outcomes of this project include new strategies to design and optimise a range of devices to drive new technologies. These technologies would provide benefits in the energy, health, communications and manufacturing sectors. . Scheme: Discovery Projects. Field: 3406 - Physical Chemistry.
