Molecular glass

Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-007494

An amorphous solid material composed of discrete, relatively small organic molecules that lack long-range order. These materials exhibit a glass transition temperature, below which they behave as rigid solids. Molecular glasses are often used in organic light-emitting diodes and other electronic devices due to their charge transport properties.
