Our research activities concern the design and synthesis of new π-conjugated materials, purposefully designed to spontaneously organize themselves at the nanoscale leading to novel properties mostly directed towards (nano)optoelectronic applications. We have ample expertise in the synthesis of organic semi-conductive materials, liquid crystalline derivatives and supra & macromolecular systems. We are also interested in the study of their structural, photophysical, self-assembling and electronic properties and possible applications in devices such as light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), laser diodes (OLDs), transistors (OFETs) and solar cells.
