Dr. Rubén D. Costa holds an independent junior group leader position at the Department of Physical Chemistry I, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany. His research group focuses on sustainable hybrid lighting technologies based on low-cost and environmentally friendly approaches to fulfill the “Green Photonics” requirements.
This book presents the recent achievements towards the next generation of Light-emitting electrochemical cells (LEC). Its first part focus on the definition, history and mechanism of LEC, going then to concepts and challenges and, finally, giving the reader examples of current application of new electroluminescent materials. The chapters are written by different international groups working on LEC.
