This type of thing initially made me wary of including myself. I thought that the subject was somehow involved in the reponses.
However, as a psych study, (REAL TV on the Net), this is great.
Organic Semiconductor tech can use self-organizing and/or assembling nanotech procedures. This uses water and other raws.
Using rather than fighting physical self-organizing trends of our Universe seems like a good approach.
Don't fight Entropy - Use it.
The semiconductor industry hadthe same liftime problems in its development of Gallium, Germanum and Silicon as substrates. This was found to be a problem of controlling impurities in a precise manner. Oxygen is usually the culprit.
Same for Organic Semiconductors (OLED) tech.
Whenever we have a hurricane in Charlotte, I look out at the parking lot and see scores of emergency generators sitting idly on four tires.
Buy a lead-acid or NIMH battery pack and a charger that works from your automobile's lighter/aux jack. Running daily errands or idling for 10-30 minutes can charge a 10 amp/hour pack for daily use. Gasoline is still the cheapest energy storage available, considering the ownership of a vehicle and the one-time cost of the charger and battery packs.

More succinctly: dont't fight Thermodymanics, use it.
