Abstract
The advent of plastic electronics utilizing organic semiconductors has revolutionized technology since the 1990s. Wearable, flexible, lightweight displays, and solar cells based on organic semiconductors have now become a reality. Conjugated polymers and organic molecules continue to attract widespread attention because of their great promise for low-cost, large-area optoelectronic and photonic device applications. In this presentation, I will discuss our recent efforts in the development of organic ferroelectric transistors, which hold great promise in brain-like computing.
