Objective of Proposal Idea: The project aims to explore and build resilient tomorrow’s free-space light communication systems based on disruptive organic optoelectronic components. High-speed Organic optoelectronic devices are available across the entire visible spectrum, and compared to inorganic III-V counterparts, they offer lower manufacturing costs, shorter time to market and a lower carbon footprint, and exhibit at least similar or better performance in terms of transmission data rates. Another advantages is the very easy and low-cost heterogeneous integration of OLED on silicon (or on any other substrate). In contrast, inorganic (III-V) components, can only be integrated with compatible substrates due to the well-known lattice[...]
