Because of theincreased availability of instant and seemingly free access to information in both personal andprofessional spheres, expectations for immediate, online access to the scholarly literature arehigh. Engineering faculty and graduate students are accustomed to accessing the online full-textof sources through search tools that rely on a range of delivery mechanisms includingsubscription-based access through their university libraries as well as free platforms like GoogleScholar or arXiv

Organic semiconductors are categorized as adisordered system distinct from conventional semiconductors and offer great potential andimportance as a new learning material, yet surprisingly there are only a few schools that coverthem in undergraduate engineering classes.14 Furthermore, the rapidly evolving field of organicsolar technology offers great opportunities for students to experience multidisciplinary topicsinvolving elements of advanced materials science, optics, solid-state electronics, and physics.This is critical in that researchers and engineers increasingly face complex problems having noclear boundaries between discrete disciplines. Hence, educational environments should cultivatestudents that are equipped with a set of tools to
