David Germack, Calvin Chan, Behrang Hamadani, Lee J. Richter, Daniel A. Fischer, David J. Gundlach, Dean DeLongchamp
The buried interface composition of polymer-fullerene blends is found by near edge X ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy to depend on the surface energy of the substrate upon which they are cast. The interface composition determines the

Flexible Solution-Processed Memristors
