Highly tunable hybrid organic-inorganic materials for electronic devices

Summary
Owing both to the increased dependence on technology and the evolving miniaturization of electronic devices, developing low-cost, tunable electronic components continues to draw considerable interest. Many popular electronic devices such as computers and cellular phones rely on semiconductors, typically made of inorganic silicon, which can require multiple and costly steps to produce. Organic molecules, on the other hand, are inexpensive to make, but often lack the desired materials properties possessed by inorganic elements like silicon. This technology combines both the tunability of organic molecules and the desired electronic properties of inorganic elements into a solution processable organic-inorganic hybrid material, leading to a low-cost, highly tunable material ideal for semiconductor electronics.
