Research Topics: Applications
of organic electronic devices – organic light emitting diodes,
solar cells, photoconductors, image sensors, photoreceptors. Basic
studies of organic thin-film devices: charge injection, transport,
recombination and luminescence properties. Metal-organic and organic-organic
junction phenomena. Development of flat-panel display technology
based on organic light emitting diodes.
Research: Prof. Tang's research
interests lie in the general areas of Chemical, and Condensed Matter
Physics, and in particular in organic electronics. Tang has been
recognized for the invention of the high-efficiency Organic Light
Emitting Diodes (OLED). Based on this key invention, a superior
flat-panel display technology has been developed for electronics
display applications from cellular phones to large-area high-definition
television screens. He has also been recognized for the discovery
of the organic hetero-junction diode. This discovery has been recognized
as a milestone contribution to the field of organic electronics
and opto-electronics. The hetero-junction device structure has been
found to be the key to obtaining high performance in organic-based,
thin film devices including OLED and solar cells.
His recent research projects include applications
of organic electronic devices , organic light emitting diodes, solar
cells, photoconductors, image sensors, photoreceptors. Basic studies
of organic thin-film devices: charge injection, transport, recombination
and luminescence properties. Metal-organic and organic-organic junction
phenomena. Development of flat-panel display technology based on
organic light emitting diodes.
