Organic semiconductors: Beyond Moore's Law

The fabrication of fast organic rectifying diode offers the novel applications in the progress of all-organic electronic circuits. The history of the electronics industry has been largely an elaboration of Moore's Law, that is, the observation that the number of transistors that can be fabricated in a given area of a semiconductor chip doubles every 24 months. The radio frequency identification (RFID) tags must compete by providing reduced labor costs and error rate, with a premium for improved function. However, non-Moore's Law solutions will increasingly be the key for future microelectronic progress, and the demonstration of compatibility with high-frequency signals is an important tool in the organic electronics toolbox.
