Organic molecules with semiconducting properties are now used as the light-emitting diodes, LEDs, in organic LED displays – the dominant technology for the high-performance displays used in smartphones and in televisions. I will describe some of our journey from early discoveries to practical display technology. I will outline some of our current research on some new phenomena that these materials can show. I will highlight our current work on molecules with net spin, where we can couple photons to spin quantum states, enabling (we hope) a new generation of quantum sensors that can be directly used in biomedical applications.
