We seek to exploit the remarkable diversity of soft semiconductor materials: both synthetic and biological. These materials are typically van der Waals bonded in the solid state, and are often highly disordered. Soft semiconductors are suitable for many applications that are poorly served by conventional, covalently bonded electronic materials. We focus on two areas: nanodevices comprising just a handful of molecules, and large area electronics, such as organic light emitting devices, and low cost solar cells.
