Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Organic electronics is a promising technology that is presently being introduced in an extensive range of applications. This Special Issue focuses on novel organic semiconductors, including small molecules, polymers, organic–inorganic hybrid halide perovskites, and their electronic applications, such as organic thin film transistors (OTFTs), organic light-emitting transistors (OLETs), memory, memristors, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QD-LEDs), halide perovskite light-emitting diodes (Pe-LEDs), organic solar cells, polymer solar cells, perovskite solar cells, photodetectors, etc. We invite researchers to submit their original research articles, as well as review articles, describing and assessing organic electronic devices and related physics. Potential topics include, but are not limited to: 

  • New materials and device technologies for solution-processed OLEDs
  • Emerging QD and halide perovskite emitters, and their LED applications
  • New device architectures for LED, TFT, solar cells, etc.
  • Halide perovskite-based memristors
  • Printing and patterning techniques for organic electronic devices
  • Materials, devices, and technologies for OLETs and OFETs
  • Non-fullerene acceptors and their photovoltaic applications
  • Low-bandgap organic and hybrid materials for infrared sensing applications

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Core-cyanated perylene diimide (PDI_CY) derivatives are molecular compounds exhibiting an uncommon combination of appealing properties, including remarkable oxidative stability, high electron affinities, and excellent self-assembling properties. Such features made these compounds the subject of study for several research groups aimed at developing electron-transporting (n-type) devices with superior charge transport performances. After about fifteen years since the first report, field-effect transistors based on PDI_CY thin films are still intensely investigated by the scientific community for the attainment of n-type devices that are able to balance the performances of the best p-type ones. In this review, we summarize the main results achieved by our group in the fabrication and characterization of transistors based on PDI8-CN2 and PDIF-CN2 molecules, undoubtedly the most renowned compounds of the PDI_CY family. Our attention was mainly focused on the electrical properties, both at the micro and nanoscale, of PDI8-CN2 and PDIF-CN2 films deposited using different evaporation techniques. Specific topics, such as the contact resistance phenomenon, the bias stress effect, and the operation in liquid environment, have been also analyzed. Full article
