Organic Electronics

The study of materials which is related to the design, synthesis, characterization, and application of organic small molecules or polymers that show desirable electronic properties such as conductivity is known as Organic Electronics. Organic electronic materials are developed from carbon-based small molecules or polymers using artificial strategies unlike conventional inorganic conductors and semiconductors. The most attractive property of polymeric conductors includes electrical conductivity that changes due to the concentration of dopants. Other properties are mechanical flexibility and high thermal stability.
