SUMMARY:Interconversion of Light and Electricity in Molecular Semiconducto

DESCRIPTION:Carbon-based molecular semiconductor devices can be engineered
  to allow very efficient conversion of electrical energy to light (in smar
 t phone OLED displays).  They can also provide thin-film solar cells that 
 share some of the operating mechanisms that are used in photosynthesis.  I
  will discuss some of the underlying science that makes this possible and 
 some of the engineering challenges to bring this to practical implementati
 ons.
