Fantastic Plastic: Spectroscopy of Conjugated Polymers
- đ¤ Speaker: Jenny Clark
- đ Date & Time: Thursday 21 October 2010, 13:10 - 14:00
- đ Venue: Entertaining Room, Darwin College
Abstract
Conjugated polymers are colourful carbon-based materials with semi-conducting properties. Chemically similar to many pigments seen in nature, they can be dissolved in solvents to produce ‘inks’ and processed to produce a range of optoelectronic devices, ranging from tunable lasers to solar cells.
In this talk, I will give a brief overview of conjugated polymers and their applications, and will focus on how spectroscopy can be used to shine light on the underlying physics of these fascinating materials.
Series This talk is part of the Darwin College Science Seminars series.
