Hydrogen-bonding in general as a supramolecular engineering tool is useful to control self-assembly and highly relevant to aqueous and biochemical systems. Hydrogen-bonds connect several classes of materials that include biomolecules and dyes and pigments. One of the examples is DNA that is a renewable resource and inherently biodegradable. This report includes DNA based organic electronic devices, several novel biocomposites, and their applications. The second part of this talk covers hydrogen-bonded organic pigments, a class of materials familiar from applications in the colorant industry. These materials are interestingly enough perfectly suited to fabricate electronic devices that cannot only be sustainable and biodegradable but also have functionalities that are not easily replicated in conventional materials. Such devices have demonstrated high performance that exceeds that of state-of-the-art devices made with currently available organic based materials.
