Molecular optoelectronic devices team - MOED

Reference of the Group:

GIUV2014-184

 
Description of research activity:

The Optoelectronic Molecular Devices Group focuses on the development of optoelectronic devices such as electroluminescent devices (organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) and photovoltaic devices for the lighting and signalling sectors, as well as in the solar energy sector. Using the same molecular semiconductors, biosensors are also being developed for the detection of human indicators.

Scientific-technical goals:
  • Desarrollar celdas emisoras de luz, dispositivos fotovoltaicos, y sensores de alto rendimiento basados en capas finas.
 
Research lines:
  • OLEDs development for lighting.Development of OLEDs using air-stable materials, making it possible to dispense with encapsulation, considerably reducing manufacturing costs.
  • High efficienciy LECs development.LECSs do not require encapsulation, so they are a cost-effective alternative to OLEDs and HyLEDs in some applications. Our goal is to develop and study LECs with longer lifetimes, shorter turn-on times and a wide colour range.
  • Perovskite based photovoltaics development.Perovskite-based solar cells are an alternative to current silicon photovoltaic systems, as it is possible to reduce the cost of production. The group is working on the development of this type of device with the aim of achieving high yields and high efficiencies at a low cost, which would allow the scope of application of this technology to be extended.
  • Development of bio-sensors for the detection of human indicators.Within this framework, we are developing new biosensors based on polymeric conductors capable, for example, of recording electrical signals as well as measuring concentrations of relevant biological species directly in physiological media, in tissues or even in isolated cells.
