Progress in photonic and optoelectronic active polymers and organic solids

The progress of the researches in photonic and optoelectronic active polyme rs and organic solids in recent two decades is reviewed with particular att ention to thr excellent achievements of Chinese scientists. The recent prog ress in the areas of conducting polymers, organic light-emitting diodes, ph otoelectric conversion material, material for information storage, and nonl inear optical polymers is introduced. The peculiarities of organic photonic and optoelectronic active materials are briefly compared with those of ino rganic photonic and optoelectronic materials.
