SUMMARY:Molecular Semiconductors – From OLED displays to solar cells to 
 quantum sensors  - Prof. Sir Richard Friend FRS (Cavendish Laboratory\, Un
 iversity of Cambridge)

CONTACT:Ruize Li
DESCRIPTION:Organic molecules with semiconducting properties are now used 
 as the light-emitting diodes\, LEDs\, in organic LED displays - the domina
 nt technology for the high-performance displays used in smartphones and in
  televisions. I will describe some of our journey from early discoveries t
 o practical display technology. I will outline some of our current researc
 h on some new phenomena that these materials can show. I will highlight ou
 r current work on molecules with net spin\, where we can couple photons to
  spin quantum states\, enabling (we hope) a new generation of quantum sens
 ors that can be directly used in biomedical applications.
