In order to account for a sustainable future, the application of biodegradable and biocompatible systems for organic optoelectronics are needed. The use of cheap electronic devices in a large scale will introduce a “consumable electronics” into the market of “consumer electronics”. Therefore environmentally friendly materials are important to use. This is a next great challenge to material science in organic electronics. New developments of bio-inspired and/or bio-origin, bio-compatible materials from our institute will be reported.
Such materials can also be used to interface the biological and biomedical research with the organic electronics devices.
We will demonstrate that organic electronics devices are capable of stimulating biological responses using electrical and/or light induced impulse. Furthermore, the other direction of reading out biological events with electrical signals is also possible by using bio-functionalized organic diodes and transistors.
This new field of bioelectronics is indeed shaping up worldwide and will soon enter the medical field by electronic implants. www.bioel.at
