Book description

The authors illustrate the basic physics and materials science of conjugated polymers and their interfaces, particularly, but not exclusively, as they are applied to polymer-based light emitting diodes. The approach is to describe the basic physical and associated chemical principles that apply to these materials, which in many instances are different from those that apply to their inorganic counterparts. The main aim of the authors is to highlight specific issues and properties of polymer surfaces and interfaces that are relevant in the context of the emerging field of polymer-based electronics in general, and polymer-based light emitting diodes in particular. Both theoretical and experimental methods used in the study of these systems are discussed. This book will be of interest to graduate students and research workers in departments of physics, chemistry, electrical engineering and materials sciences studying polymer surfaces and interfaces and their application in polymer-based electronics.

Reviews

‘The authors of this book, who are among the leading workers in the field, provide a concise and timely introduction to both theoretical and experimental methodology, which they illustrate with well chosen examples from their research results. The book is well organised, allowing the non-specialist reader to learn the basic theoretical and experimental methods rapidly. The examples are discussed and illustrated in a way that leaves readers with a clear understanding of the techniques used. As a researcher in the field of polymer light-emitting diodes, I found this book a valuable overview of the subject, and believe that it will be essential reading for anyone who wants a better understanding of the science involved in developing these devices.’
