Physical and Chemical Aspects of Organic Electronics (eBook)

Christof Wöll studied physics at the Georg-August University in Göttingen, Germany, and received his Ph.D. degree from the Max-Planck-Institute for Flow Research in 1987. From 1988 to 1989, he worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the IBM Division in San Jose, USA, researching in scanning tunnelling microscopy of clean and adsorbate covered metal surfaces. In 1992 followed his Habilitation in Physics from the University of Heidelberg, where he lectured in physical chemistry. From 1994 to 1996, Professor Wöll was a Heisenberg Fellow of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft at the Institute of Physical Chemistry, University of Heidelberg. He has published over 180 articles and is a member of the editorial boards of several journals.
