Organic electronics is a field related to the study the properties of organic or polymeric materials utilized in active parts of electronic and opto-electronic devices. The subject also includes plastic electronics, bioelectronics, conducting polymer, organic semiconductors and nonlinear optical materials. Among the devices that can be fabricated using science and technology organic electronics are bio(chemical) sensors, pyroelectric sensors, solar cells, transistors and organic light emitting diodes (OLED). Research in this field at the Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia [UKM) has begun since 1987.

Until now, IMEN group has successfully fabricated a few devices prototype as such carbon monoxide gas sensor, optical electronic nose and OLED. Several sensor systems are being developed to test the potential of materials as sensor element. Because of the extremely wide scope of field of sensors, sensor manufacturing here will mainly focus on the use of sensors in automotive systems. Sensors related to safety and environmental control is also targeted.

The group focuses their research onto applications of organic thin films in electronic devices majoring in four areas namely OLED fabrication, sensor fabrication, quantum dot devices and the latest which is printed electronics. The group has collaborations with several universities in Indonesia such as Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI) and Gadjah Mada University. Indonesia in developing organic thin film devices.
