Polymer semiconductor materials are interesting alternatives to inorganic semiconductors in applications where low cost, flexible or transparent substrates, and large area format is required. Currently they have been incorporated into organic thin-film transistors, integrated display driver circuits, photovoltaics artificial electronic skin, and radio frequency identification tags.  One of our fundamental interests is to understand how we can ultimately perform rational design of organic semiconductors. In this talk, I will present our efforts on understanding of molecular design rules for achieving efficient charge carrier transport and controlled growth of organic semiconductors. I will also present applications of these materials and devices for flexible and stretchable electronics applications.
