Novel conjugated polymer structure as

Printable, solution-processable
electronics
Small amount of semiconductive or conductive ink
can produce enormous amount of sensors by printing
technologies. 1 mL OM Sciences electronics ink can
produce over 200 sensing components for electronic
devices.
The Advantageous Features
of Conjugated Polymers
for Printable Organic Electronics
LOW POWER
Operate at one millionth of a volt, which is a thousand
times lower than the current produced by nerve cells.
Small amount of energy is required to drive the sensor,
making them ideal for real-time monitoring. Materials can
also be used in medicine, in vivo (human body) sensing
and robotics.
LOW COST
Total synthesis of active materials can be completed in the
laboratory, greatly reducing time and labor costs in
traditional electronics. Readily available resources such as
petroleum or biomasses as raw materials are used.
LIGHTWEIGHT
Organic electronics utilizes carbon as the major bbuilding
block used as semiconductors, or conductors. The nature
of carbon-based materials are lighter than conventional
inorganic materials. This enables better wearable, flexible,
strechable, or even implantable device experiences.
HIGH TUNABILITY
The different combinations building blocks and their
chemical functionality can bring different physical or
chemical effects to the final conjugated polymer.
Currently, OM Sciences has developed 8 kinds of donors
and 7 kinds of acceptors building blocks. In total, there are
56 possibilities that bear various properties for the
industry.
EASE OF FABRICATION
Production of polymers only takes 1 to 2 weeks. The
inorganic semiconductor industry requires more than 1 kg
to fabricate substrates. Organic conductive polymer only
requires 100 milligrams to 1 gram to fabricate one batch of
electronic components.
