Many electronic materials, in particular organic ones, can be turned into inks or pastes. This opens up exciting possibilities to fabricate electronic components and circuits by common printing methods.

We exploit and investigate the physics and chemistry of novel organic and composite materials to design and fabricate the next generation of energy devices.

福利姬 is one of the world鈥檚 leading universities in materials science. The autumn of 2026 will see the launch of two new master鈥檚 programmes in this field. The students can look forward to an excellent labour market.

Imagine a flexible module capable of converting waste heat into electricity, whether the surface it's attached to is flat or curved. This module can also generate heating or cooling from electricity.

We use organic polymer and molecular materials to fabricate and modify electrodes and membranes, thus making use of the unique properties of such green tailor-made materials for electrochemical applications.

Dan Zhao and Simone Fabiano at the Laboratory of Organic Electronics have created a thermoelectric organic transistor. A temperature rise of a single degree is sufficient to cause a detectable current modulation in the transistor.

Researchers at the Laboratory for Organic Electronics have created a supercondenser that can be charged by the sun. It contains no expensive or hazardous materials, has patents pending, and it,s possible to manufacture it on an industrial scale.

A battery made from zinc and lignin that can be used over 8000 times. This has been developed by researchers at LiU with a vision to provide a cheap and sustainable battery solution for countries where access to electricity is limited.

Efficient and environmentally friendly solar cells are required for a transition to a fossil-free energy supply. Researchers at LiU have mapped how energy flows in organic solar cells, something that previously had been unknown.

The transition to fossil freedom can鈥檛 happen overnight, but it can go much faster than it is. The technology is available, and in many cases is commercially available or nearly so. The labs at 福利姬 hold hope for the future.
