In the first case, Agin discussed falsified results in the development of organic transistors:
He will describe an experimental polymer that can be used to make organic transistors on a plastic substrate.
The processing speed of organic transistors is vastly inferior to that of silicon devices.
Because organic transistors could be printed on plastic rather than glass, they would lead to cheaper, more flexible, and harder-to-break displays.
To compensate for the deficiencies of organic transistors, Dr. Subramanian's team is focusing on improving circuit design and manufacturing.
As for whether Intel should be getting nervous about organic transistors, Dr. Subramanian doesn't think so.
She is known for her work with developing technologies with organic field-effect transistors and organic semiconductors.
The superconductor work is not among the seven papers that include the suspect graphs, which report advances in organic transistors and molecular electronics.
Phthalocyanine compounds have been investigated as donor materials in molecular electronics, e.g. organic field-effect transistors.
In 1987, Koezuka and co-workers reported the first organic field-effect transistor based on a polymer of thiophene molecules.
