Abstract

Inkjet Printed complementary inverters based on organic electrochemical transistors (OECT - organic electrochemical transistor) are the device of choice for building logical, sophisticated and intelligent bioelectronic devices. However, to reach this level, challenges must be overcome. Among them, this project will investigate the mechanisms of operation of these devices, the physics of the interfaces involved, stability and optimization. This topic is quite recent in the literature and, therefore, its study constitutes opportunities to contribute to the understanding of fundamental aspects of the area, as well as the possibility of publications of high scientific and technological impact.
