Research Area
Energy, organic semiconductors, transistors, solar cells, carbon nanotube, transparent electrodes, sensors, soft materials, organic and polymer synthesis and characterization, nano- and micropatterning, bio-inspired assembly, and device fabrication and characterization
Description of Research
The research programs in my laboratory are centered on using chemical and chemical engineering approaches towards the fabrication of functional nano- and microstructures with novel electronic and photonic properties. Our research activities involve organic and polymer synthesis, surface chemistry, nano- and micropatterning, bio-inspired patterning and assembly, and materials and device characterization.
The approach we take is multidisciplinary, involving chemistry, chemical engineering, biomedical engineering, materials science and engineering, physics, and electrical engineering. The devices of current interest are organic and carbon nanotube thin film transistors, organic photovoltaic cells, transparent electrodes, chemical and biological sensors and molecular switches,. These devices are used as characterization tools for fundamental charge transport and photophysics studies. They are also of practical interest for nano-scale electronics, alternative energy sources, low cost and large area flexible plastic circuits, displays, and disposable sensors.
1. Printed Flexible Plastic Electronics
Organic materials are attractive as the active materials for electronic and photonic devices because of their ease in fabrication and versatility of property tuning by molecular design and engineering. For example, displays made of organic light emitting diodes are already available as consumer products. Thin-film transistors are the key building blocks for displays and memory circuits for smart cards and RF identification tags. Thin-film transistors made of organic materials are potentially low-cost and compatible with flexible substrates. Solution-soluble organic materials can be designed and synthesized for printing of electronics in a similar fashion as how newspapers are printed. For the above applications to become reality, a fundamental understanding of materials requirements and interactions between materials is required. Novel printing methods and fine-tuning of organic materials to be compatible with the desired printing methods are also necessary.
Research Projects
- Design and synthesis of high-performance organic semiconductors.
- Design and synthesis of solution-processable and printable organic semiconductors.
- Innovation and development of non-lithographic printing methods.
- Development of fundamental understanding of the growth mechanisms of organic semiconductors from vapor and solution phases.
- Exploration of charge transport in organic single crystals.
2. Organic Solar Cells
The development of affordable photovoltaic (solar) cells is a promising long-term energy source that does not produce greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Currently, almost all photovoltaic (PV) cells being manufactured are made of crystalline silicon; the power produced by these cells is five times more expensive than the typical cost of electricity from the grid. Our goal is to develop technologies that can reduce the cost per watt of generation capability by at least a factor of five and hopefully even further. Our approach is to use organic semiconductors, which can be deposited onto flexible substrates in roll-to-roll coating machines, similar to those used to make photographic film and newspapers. Some key materials issues have to be solved, however, before organics can be used for high-performance solar cells.
Research Projects
- Design and synthesis of organic semiconductors with low bandgaps and high charge carrier mobilities.
- Understand and control of thin film morphology in organic solar cells.
3. Carbon Nanotube-Based Flexible Electronics and Transparent Electrodes
CNT-based electronic devices are promising candidates for a new generation of nano- and microelectronics. They are being widely explored for their interesting mechanical and electrical properties. In particular, field-effect mobility much greater than single crystal silicon can be achieved. It is also likely carbon nanotubes will play critical roles in nanoelectronic devices, as the need for shrinking the dimensions of silicon devices increases. The challenges preventing the use of CNTs in practical devices lie in the difficulties in separating nanotubes with different electronic properties, and in the placement of individual nanotubes in designated locations.
Research Projects
- Development of fundamental understanding of molecule-CNT interaction.
- Development of metallic/semiconducting CNT separation techniques.
- Fabrication and optimization of large-area film transistors from purified CNTs.
- Self-assembly and patterning of CNTs.
- Fabrication of low sheet resistance transparent electrodes.
4. Chemical and Biological Sensors
Chemical and biological sensors are important for environmental monitoring, disease diagnostics, food processing, and homeland security. Low cost and lightweight sensors are especially desirable. Electronic sensing has the advantages of high sensitivity, compact devices, and the possibility of mass production using well-developed microfabrication methods. Organic transistors are potentially interesting for sensors because of their ease of fabrication and the versatility of their molecular materials and surface properties. In order to detect chemical or biological species of interest with high selectivity and sensitivity, novel chemical strategies towards organic semiconductors that can function under various harsh environmental conditions (e.g. under water, acidic or basic) and their surface functionalization are needed.
Research Projects
- Design and synthesis of organic semiconductors for selective sensing of chemical and biological species.
- Fabrication and realization of chemical and biological sensors.
- Development of fundamental understanding of molecular interactions that may lead to novel sensing devices.
5. Nano Molecular Electonics
The scaling of silicon devices following Moore’s law— predicting the number of transistors on a microprocessor will double approximately every 18 months— will eventually reach its limit. The cost of producing electronic devices using lithographic methods is also expected to increase significantly when feature sizes reach the nanometer scale. Therefore, alternative approaches to realize nanoscale electronics and fundamental understanding of charge transport of molecular materials in the nanoscale are crucial. Some of the major challenges are: lack of robust molecular wires, difficulties in making reliable contacts between molecules and microscopic electrodes, and lack of low cost high resolution patterning methods.
Research Projects
- Development of chemical synthetic and engineering routes towards reliable molecular junctions.
- Development of novel nanopatterning methods.
- Design and fabrication of DNA-templated structures for nanoelectronic devices.
6. Self-Assembly of Nano and Micro Objects
The ability to fabricate self-assembled three-dimensional (3-D) structures is potentially useful for the development of diffractive optical devices, micromechanical systems, and sensory elements. Techniques such as two-photon absorption and multilayer photolithography have been successfully employed to produce 3D structures. In addition, colloidal particles have also been used in conjunction with sol-gel techniques to self-assemble nano- or micro- spheres through gravity or pressure to form closely packed periodic structures. However, these process are generally time-consuming, do not allow selective introduction of defects, not applicable to a wide range of materials, and more importantly, there is little control over the lattice structure of the self-assembly (e.g. simple cubic or diamond). Surface selective functionalized elements are needed to realize controlled assembly of 3D structures. Our research will not only involve the synthesis and fabrication of such objects, but also the underlying principles in assembling these objects into functional 3D microstructures.
Research Projects
- Synthesis of polymer nano and micro objects with desire electronic and photonic properties.
- Fundamental understanding of the intricate surface interactions between nano/micro objects and the substrate surfaces.
- Approaches to assemble nano and micro objects into macroscopic structures and devices.
