Electroactive Reactive Oligomers and Polymers as Device Components

Abstract

The development of conjugated. conducting and electroactive oligomers, polymers and multi-component materials is proposed for application to photovoltaic, organic electronic and other devices of interest to the Air Force. We will design, synthesize, and characterize oligomers and polymers having a large enhancement of a property or a high degree of tunability of the property via repeat unit, macromolecular and morphological structures. Proto-type devices will be studied as a means of providing feedback from materials development and for positioning the materials for transition to industrial or Air Force laboratories.
