The understanding of the ionic and electronic transport mechanisms and their coupling in mixed conduction materials should guide the development of enhanced materials and technologies, allowing to identify the physics under the weak points of current technologies. The wide variety and the versatility of organic materials make this a hard challenge, because very different electronic and ionic charge trans- port mechanisms can be involved when considering different materials. The multi- disciplinary scenario makes the challenge even harder, demanding for the collaboration of different backgrounds including physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, and medicine.

Abstract
The understanding of the ionic and electronic transport mechanisms and their coupling in mixed conduction materials should guide the development of enhanced materials and technologies, allowing to identify the physics under the weak points of current technologies. The wide variety and the versatility of organic materials make this a hard challenge, because very different electronic and ionic charge trans- port mechanisms can be involved when considering different materials. The multi- disciplinary scenario makes the challenge even harder, demanding for the collaboration of different backgrounds including physics, chemistry, biology, engineering, and medicine. Nevertheless, this results in an extremely dynamic field, with a huge foreseen potential and an even larger panorama of unexplored possibilities.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
