Optoelectronic devices based on hybrid organic–inorganic structures

Conjugated polymers have become attractive for a range of device applications as light emitting diodes (display), photo-voltaic cells, transistors, and lasers. While there is true value in making all plastic devices most of the currently made ones involve the use of inorganic layers and or substrates. In this paper we outline some of the attractive properties of such devices and show that the hybridization on a nano-scale (as in blends) could be a powerful tool.
