Executive Summary 

Organic electronic devices offer promising new applications. Some considerations precluding their more widespread implementation include: stability, consistency, and performance. I seek to determine new ways of improving these characteristics in organic semiconductor nanoparticles by studying the directed self-assembly process by which these materials are made.
