OxTalks Change Freeze Starts 2 March
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period. Once Oxford Events launches, you will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Electronics with molecules – photosynthesis, OLEDs and solar cells
Many carbon-based molecules behave as semiconductors when they have similar electronic structure to graphene. Nature has developed these to harvest energy from sunlight in photosynthetic systems. Much more recently, synthetic organic semiconductors have been developed and are now successfully used in semiconductor devices such as LEDs for OLED displays. I will outline some of the scientific surprises along the route from discovery to practical applications, and discuss the scope for engineering efficient solar cells.
