NUS scientists have reported in Nature the discovery of latent universal electron donors from common anions, like oxalate, which can potently transfer electrons to organic semiconductors, realizing the dream to achieve electron injection layers with ultralow work functions which can yet be processed from solution in the ambient. This is expected to open many new possibilities, not only for organic electronics, but also other advanced semiconductors, including quantum dots, nanowires, two-dimensional (2-D) materials, and perovskites.
