  • Electronic Conduction Mechanisms in Insulators

    Creator:
    Chiang, Tsung-Han
    Abstract:
    The research presented herein focuses on electrical assessment of oxide thin films as insulators. The current density-electric field (J-E) characteristics of four insulators of dramatically different electrical quality are assessed in terms of their operative electronic conduction mechanisms. Conduction in the two high-quality insulators is dominated by Ohmic conduction and...

    Norris, Benjamin J.
    Abstract:
    In this thesis steady-state (i.e. steady-state with respect to the applied voltage waveform) transient current-transient voltage [i(t)-v(t)], transient brightness-transient current [b(t)-i(t)], transient brightness-transient voltage [b(t)-v(t)], transient current [i(t)], transient brightness [b(t)], and detrapped charge analysis are introduced as novel organic light emitting device (OLED) characterization methods. These analysis methods involve...

  • Thermally-stable amorphous metal thin films

    Creator:
    McGlone, John M.
    Abstract:
    Amorphous metal thin films (AMTFs) are of potential use for metal-insulator-metal (MIM) tunnel diode applications due to their ultra-smooth surfaces, a consequence of their amorphous microstructure. The objective of this thesis is to design a thermally-stable AMTF capable of maintaining MIM tunnel diode performance after a post-deposition anneal in excess...

  • Development of Amorphous Metal Thin Films for Thermal Inkjet Printing and Microelectronics

    Creator:
    McGlone, John M.
    Abstract:
    Due to a lack of grain boundaries, an amorphous metal thin film (AMTF) possesses advantageous mechanical properties and enhanced chemical stability that is potentially useful for thermal inkjet (TIJ) printing applications. The use of an AMTF as a TIJ resistor or cavitation plate could lead to a thinner TIJ cavitation...

  • p-type transparent electronics

    Creator:
    Valencia, Melinda Marie
    Abstract:
    The objective of this thesis is to contribute to the development of p-type materials for transparent electronics applications. Thin films of ®-BaCu2S2, a p-type semi-transparent semiconductor, are fabricated and characterized. ®-BaCu2S2 has a transmittance of 60% to 80 % in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The mobility, conductivity,...

  • DC/AC Stability of In-Ga-Zn-O Thin-Film Transistors

    Creator:
    Zhou, Fan
    Abstract:
    The electrical stability of amorphous indium-gallium-zinc oxide (a-IGZO) thinfilmtransistors (TFTs) is investigated for flat-panel display applications. Althoughproducts incorporating a-IGZO TFT backplanes are already commercially available,e.g., iMac with 5K retina display, technical challenges need to be addressed for nextgenerationapplications, e.g., active-matrix organic light-emitting diode displays.Device stability is one crucial issue. The...

    Abstract:
    The objective of the research presented in this thesis is to develop, implement, and demonstrate the utility of an n-sheet, state-space alternating-current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) device model. In this model, the phosphor layer is discretized into n + 1 layers, with band-to-band impact ionization, space charge creation/ annihilation, and luminescent...
