Polymeric organic glasses, in the form of thin films, are now used in multilayer photoconductor configurations in which the light is absorbed in one layer and electrical charge is transported through an adjacent layer.
Amorphous semiconductors, in the form of thin films prepared by methods such as that shown in Figure 4D, are important in applications requiring large areas of electronically active material.
They were prepared in form of thin films.
The final composites are in the form of thin films with approximate dimensions 3 × 3 cm.
