Project 13 – Characterization and Analysis of Organic Devices and Circuits

Richard Hagelauer, o. Univ.-Prof. DI. Dr.

The goal of the sub-project 13 is to characterize and analyse organic devices in respect to circuit simulation and design. During device development and optimisation, which is done in other sub-projects [Pr10-12] of this proposal, it is extremely valuable and necessary to receive feedback from circuit simulation and design to influence the optimisation strategy of the device itself. The work of the sub-project is divided in three main tasks. In the first task the decision of the model strategy between pure analytical, table based and pure empirical models or combinations of those models has to be made. Another important question is, whether or not a single equivalent circuit could be used for devices with different active layers. In the second task the modelling itself will be done, which also requires research work in test structures and measurement methods. This is necessary e.g. to account for the not structured active layers in actual organic device. The third part of the project deals with circuit design to demonstrate the potential of the organic devices for use in different circuits. It also deals with the integration of the model(s) in one of the currently used state of the art circuit simulators.
