Understanding Polytronics in Electronics

This document introduces polytronics, which combines polymers and electronics. It discusses how polymers can be used as alternatives to traditional semiconductor materials like silicon and germanium. Polymers can be engineered to conduct electricity through doping or the addition/removal of electrons. Some applications of polytronics mentioned include ink jet technology that prints electronic circuits, rubber electronics for monitoring human organs, organic LED displays, plastic batteries, and more. The advantages cited are freedom in design, lower cost, being environmentally friendly, lower power consumption, and qualities of being light weight, recyclable, and able to provide increased picture quality.

INTRODUCTION

▪ Early half of nineteenth century ,the field of electronics has


innumerable change, tremendous impact on the life of a common
man education ,entertainment or healthcare there are no field where
electronics has not made an impact.
▪ The entire concept of electronics is based on the study material
called semiconductors.
▪ Semiconductor material include the elements like silicon and
germanium
▪ As silicon has various disadvantages ,led the researches and scientist
all over the world look for other alternative
“Instead of this we have went for polytronics ”
POLYTRONICS

POLYMER+ELECTRONICS=POLYTRONICS
• Influence of plastics in electronics.
• Before it was said that plastics are the poor conductors of electricity.
• Plastics and conjugated polymers are exclusively used in the manufacture of
electronic product.
WHAT IS A POLYMER

Poly-many ; mer-parts
 Large molecule built by repeated chain of monomer by the process of polymerisation.
 These polymers are formed by double and triple bond to form a rigid structure.
CONDUCTIVITY
▪ By obeying ohms law
V=I*R
 It defines the conductivity in polymers and ceramics as free of electrons/ions
DOPING:

addition/removal of electrons
Mobility Conductive
APPLICATION

Ink Jet Technology Rubber electronics


The entire product would come out of the Extent gold wires are used , monitoring
printer with the electronic circuit embedded. and functionality of human organs
APPLICATION
Organic LED
Plastic battery
Electroluminescent principle is used
Both electrodes and electrolyte are , digital display in tv
made of polymers
ADVANTAGES

▪ Freedom in design
▪ Cost effective
▪ Environment friendly
▪ Consumes less power
▪ Recycled and reused
▪ Light in weight and small
▪ Increased picture quality
