On 25th May, Royce Cambridge in Partnership with the Institute of Physics (IOP) will hold a webinar on the subject of stabilizing organic transistors in water for bioelectronic applications.
Organic bioelectronics is an emerging field – whereby organic materials seem ideal candidates for bioelectronics due to their softness, biocompatibility, stretchability, and their ability to conduct both electrons and ions.
Dr Dimitrios Simatos will outline important research which used an additives-based approach to stabilize Organic Field Effect Transistor (OFETs) immersed in Deionized (DI) water and saline solution, for periods up to a month, making the first high-performance water-stable OFETs reported in the literature. Dr Simatos received his PhD degree in Physics from the University of Cambridge, in 2022 and is currently a post-doctoral research associate at the University. His current research interests include wearables, implantable electronics, and the integration of organic and inorganic materials within the same device (hybrid systems).
