Organic Electronic Device Modeling at the Nanoscale

Electronic devices with nanoscale features (~ 100 nm or smaller) are becoming increasingly important in electronics technology. While nanoscale electronic devices comprise a variety of different material sets and structures, many of the nanoscale devices developed in the last decade employ organic materials. In this talk, we discuss the modeling of organic electronic thin film devices. In our approach, analysis of such devices begins on the molecular scale, and device level behavior is then derived from the combination of individual molecular properties and physical models of intermolecular interactions. We present a general purpose Monte Carlo simulator based on molecular-scale physical models and employ this simulator to analyze device behavior.
