| The fabrication of light emitting devices (LEDs) has been a well-developed industry for many years. Currently, a search for organic replacements to the typical inorganic materials used in LEDs is underway. We are designing a complex comprised of the abundant polymer chitosan, a derivative of chitin, and porphyrins with a goal of utilizing the optical properties of porphyrins and the unreactive backbone of the chitosan to prepare LEDs. |
