Optimization of CdS Buffer Layer for High Efficiency CIGS Solar Cells.

In present work, effects of the thickness on the structural and optical properties of chemically deposited CdS thin films were investigated. In addition, we fabricated Cu(In, Ga)Se2 solar cells with various thicknesses of CdS buffer layer and optimized the thickness for a high efficiency. When the CdS thin films were thicker, the crystallinity improved but the transmittance decreased.

Fabrication and Characteristics of High Mobility InSnZnO Thin Film Transistors.

In this paper, we describe the fabrication of thin film transistors (TFTs) with amorphous indium-tin-zinc-oxide (ITZO) as the active material. A transparent ITZO channel layer was formed under an optimized oxygen partial pressure (OPP (%) = O2/(Ar + O2)) and subsequent annealing process. The electrical properties exhibited by this device include field-effect mobility (μ(eff)), sub-threshold swing (SS), and on/off current ratio (I(ON/OFF)) values of 28.

Analysis of the Electrical Properties of an Electron Injection Layer in Alq3-Based Organic Light Emitting Diodes.

We investigated the carrier transfer and luminescence characteristics of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) with structure ITO/HAT-CN/NPB/Alq3/Al, ITO/HAT-CN/NPB/Alq3/Liq/Al, and ITO/HAT-CN/NPB/Alq3/LiF/A. The performance of the OLED device is improved by inserting an electron injection layer (EIL), which induces lowering of the electron injection barrier. We also investigated the electrical transport behaviors of p-Si/Alq3/Al, p-Si/Alq3/Liq/Al, and p-Si/Alq3/LiF/Al Schottky diodes, by using current-voltage (L-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) characterization methods.
