Example Sentences

These include organic semiconductors of various kinds, as well as conjugated polymers for sensing and biomedical applications.

From Science Daily

Such conjugated vaccines are known to induce a stronger T cell immune response, generally leading to better and longer lasting protection.

From Science Magazine

However, processing conjugated polymers often requires environmentally hazardous, toxic, and flammable solvents.

From Science Daily

"Our research introduces a new approach to processing conjugated polymers using benign solvents such as water. With this method, called ground-state electron transfer, we not only get around the problem of using hazardous chemicals, but we can also demonstrate improvements in material properties and device performance," says Simone Fabiano, senior associate professor at the Laboratory of Organic Electronics.

From Science Daily

Organic electronics are built from semiconducting plastics, known as conjugated polymers.
