| additional remarks | The newest developments in microelectronics, energy conversion, and sensing device design are tied very closely to our ability to develop new hybrid systems where molecular and electronic control of the structure is key. The optimization of interfaces in different inorganic-organic device systems depends strongly on our level of control and understanding of both the molecular chemical processes involved on surfaces and the effects on the electronic states. The module is devoted to achieve a fundamental understanding of the physical, chemical, biological, structural, and electrical properties of these complex heterostructures. In particular the module will focus on the structure of crystalline solids and surface lattices, origins of surface reactivity and growth processes, interfacial phenomena and change of energy levels in heterostructure optimization, and on the formation of organic nanostructures and bioorganic films. Moreover current highlights in the literature on the application of functional interface on semiconductor devices will be discussed. In addition a short overview of the mostly applied characterization tools and novel surface imaging and spectroscopy techniques applied in the field will be given. |
