    Seebeck coefficient in organic semiconductors A dissertation submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Deepak Venkateshvaran Fitzwilliam College & Optoelectronics Group, Cavendish Laboratory University of Cambridge February 2014 \The end of education is good character" SRI SATHYA SAI BABA To my parents, Bhanu and Venkatesh, for being there...always Acknowledgements I remain ever grateful to Prof. Henning Sirringhaus for having accepted me into his research group at the Cavendish Laboratory. Henning is an intelligent and composed individual who left me feeling positively enriched after each and every discussion. I received much encouragement and was given complete freedom. I honestly cannot envision a better intellectually stimulating atmosphere compared to the one he created for me. During the last three years, Henning has played a pivotal role in my growth, both personally and professionally and if I ever succeed at being an academic in future, I know just the sort of individual I would like to develop into. Few are aware that I came to Cambridge after having had a rather intense and difficult experience in Germany as a researcher. In my first meeting with Henning, I took off on an unsolicited monologue about why I was so unhappy with my time in Germany. To this he said, \Deepak, now that you are here with us, we will try our best to make the situation better for you". Henning lived up to this word in every possible way. Three years later, I feel reinvented. I feel a constant sense of happiness and contentment in my life together with a renewed sense of confidence in the pursuit of academia.

  • Year in Review 2018
    Year in Review 2018 International Neuroethics Society Message from the President I was honored to become President of the International Neuroethics Society in November 2017 and to have a chance to build on the excellent work of my predecessors, Judy Illes, Barbara Sahakian, and Steve Hyman. I set out three goals for my two years as President: • To increase opportunities in the Society for INS members • To boost the public role of the INS in discussions, scholarly and public, of neuroethics and • To increase INS membership. I am pleased to report that we have increased the opportunities for members to take part in the Society’s activities with new committees and task forces. We have reached out to the public through, for example, our public event at the Annual Meeting on ‘My Brain Made Me Buy It? The Neuroethics of Advertising’ and our essay competition in which our members were invited to write for the lay reader. Building our membership, however, has been a little more challenging. Neuroethics is in some ways a niche field but with advances in brain research raising ever more social and ethical dilemmas, it is vital that scientists, philosophers and clinicians become involved. I am eager to get more regional INS meetings, giving opportunities for members to get together apart from the one annual meeting and to spread the word about neuroethics. We have made good progress here in 2018 with events in Oxford, UK; Milwaukee, USA; and Sydney, Australia. We have been developing new partnerships with other like-minded organizations and participating in conferences around the world.

Such polymers would be expected to behave as rigid rods, but little is known about their actual chain Downloaded from conformations and electronic structure. Here, we present a detailed study of the structural and charge transport properties of a family of four such polymers. By adopting a copolymer design, we achieve high electron mobilities 2 −1 −1 up to 0.5 cm V s . Field-induced electron spin resonance measurements of charge dynamics provide evidence for relatively slow hopping over, however, long distances.
