Our research group is working to bring organic semiconductors to our life. These materials exhibit electronic properties that are exceptionally tolerant to defects and imperfections, allowing for the fabrication of thin-films at room temperature. They possess unique features such as low cost, chemical synthetic flexibility, mechanical flexibility, and optical transparency. These attributes open up possibilities for a diverse range of advanced optoelectronic applications and innovative product concepts that would be impossible to implement with existing technologies.
OPVs possess the ability to produce electrical power from diverse irradiation conditions, from outdoor to indoor environments. The potential low cost, flexibility, and lightweight properties of OPVs make them an appealing choice for a broad range of applications, including wearable electronics, solar-powered mobile devices, and building-integrated PVs.
OPD is a type of photodetector based on organic semiconducting materials to detect light and convert it into electrical signals. Their high detectivity, flexibility, and compatibility with different substrates make them ideal for various applications such as imaging sensors, medical diagnostics, and wearable devices.
Automotive sensors are electronic devices that are designed to detect changes in the physical or chemical environment of a vehicle and convert them into a signal that can be used by the vehicle's control system to make decisions. These sensors optimize vehicle performance, and play a crucial role in ensuring the safe and efficient operation of vehicles.
Next-generation semiconductors are constructed on a nanometer scale, offering high density and high performance while also featuring low power consumption. They are expected to drive innovation in advanced scientific and technological fields, including mobile devices, IoTs, AI, robotics, and medical devices, owing to their capability for large-scale data processing.
Stretchable electronics offer numerous benefits over conventional rigid electronics, such as improved flexibility, increased durability, and the ability to conform to irregular or curved surfaces. These advantages make stretchable electronics a promising technology for various fields, including wearable electronics, medical devices, soft robotics, and smart textiles.
