Abstract

Invited for this month's cover are the research groups of Professors Catherine Housecroft and Edwin Constable from the University of Basel, Switzerland and Professor Enrique Ortí and Dr. Henk Bolink from the University of Valencia, Spain. These groups have a longstanding collaboration to investigate molecular electronic devices, in particular light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). The featured article highlights the development of LECs with copper(I)-based emitters for devices consisting of Earth-abundant materials. Read the full text of the article at 10.1002/cplu.201700501.
