Challenges for Incorporating Optical Switchability in Organic-Based Electronic Devices
Source abstract
Abstract
Transistors operate by controlling the current flowing from a source to a drain electrode via a third electrode (gate), thus giving access to a binary treatment (ON/OFF or 0/1) of the signal currently exploited in microelectronics. Introducing a second independent lever to modulate the current would allow for more complex logic functions amenable to a single electronic component and hence to new opportunities for advanced electrical signal processing. One avenue is to add this second dimension with light by incorporating photochromic molecules in current organic-based electronic devices. In this Spotlight, we describe different concepts that have been implemented in organic thin films and in molecular junctions as well as some pitfalls that have been highlighted thanks to theoretical modeling.
