Thin-Film Organic Photonics: Molecular Layer Deposition and Applications (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781138075900)

This book is an invaluable resource for material scientists working to develop artificial materials that can be structurally tailored at the atomic/molecular-level. This capability will enable electron-wave function control, which would improve material performance and generate new photonic/electronic phenomena. Exploring the prospect of structural modification in artificial materials, field pioneer Yoshimura describes how we can enhance the photonic/electronic properties of thin films using such precise manipulation of atomic and molecular arrangement. He also addresses related topics and concepts, such as a self-organized lightwave networks and heterogeneous integration processes. In addition, this important resource assesses applications in computers, optical switching systems, solar energy conversion systems, and bio/medical-photonics.
