  • Precursor Chemistry and Film Structure and Properties via Solution Deposition

    Creator:
    Huang, Yu
    Abstract:
    Chemistry of preparing dense film from solution deposition is explored with several cases in this thesis. Surface dense structure, conversion at melting point, and ion exchange in aqueous solution are the main topics covered here for the thin films of aluminum oxide phosphate and tin dioxide. Thin film density, optical...

  • Luminescent sulfides and solution-deposited oxide thin films

    Creator:
    Anderson, Jeremy T.
    Abstract:
    Solid state luminescent sulfides are prepared as powders in order to elucidate the relationship between structure and light emission. While the sulfides studied in this dissertation are known phosphors, materials are investigated in a variety of new ways. Elementary properties and structures of MgS are reviewed, and preparation of MgS...

  • Development of oxide semiconductors : materials, devices, and integration

    Creator:
    Chiang, Hai Q.
    Abstract:
    The aim of this dissertation is to develop oxide semiconductors by radio-frequency sputtering for thin-film transistor (TFT) applications. A variety of oxide semiconductors are used as the TFT channel layer, including indium gallium oxide (IGO), zinc tin oxide (ZTO), and indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO). The variety of materials used...

  • Growth and characterization of wide–gap semiconducting oxide and chalcogenide thin films by pulsed laser deposition

    Creator:
    Newhouse, Paul F.
    Abstract:
    The preparation and characterization of thin film oxides and chalcogenides by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) is presented. An overview of fundamental PLD concepts are presented and are followed by a description implementation and development of the PLD systems at OSU. We present the results of thin film growth of high...

  • Amorphous oxide semiconductor thin-film transistor ring oscillators and material assessment

    Creator:
    Sundholm, Eric Steven
    Abstract:
    Amorphous oxide semiconductor (AOS) thin-film transistors (TFTs) constitute the central theme of this thesis. Within this theme, three primary areas of focus are pursued. The first focus is the realization of a transparent three-stage ring oscillator with buffered output and an output frequency in the megahertz range. This leads to...

  • Zinc tin oxide thin-film transistor circuits

    Creator:
    Heineck, Daniel Philip
    Abstract:
    The primary objective of this thesis is to develop a process for fabricating integrated circuits based on thin-film transistors (TFTs) using zinc tin oxide (ZTO) as the channel layer. ZTO, in contrast to indium- or gallium-based amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOS), is perceived to be a more commercially viable AOS choice...

  • Amorphous multi-component metals as electrode materials

    Creator:
    Cowell, E. William
    Abstract:
    The objective of this thesis is to provide an initial demonstration of two-terminal and three-terminal electronic devices employing amorphous multi-component metallic film (AMMF) electrodes. Such a demonstration is successfully achieved in the fabrication of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) diode and hot electron transistor (HETs) structures employing ZrCuAlNi AMMF electrodes. The ultra-smooth surface...

  • The synthesis, optical, and transport properties of SnZrS₃

    Creator:
    Harada, Daniel Ryan
    Abstract:
    Semiconducting materials which can be ambipolarly doped are highly desirable in many electronics applications, including use as solar cell materials. SnZrS₃ is being investigated for the possibility of ambipolar doping, with potential applications as a solar cell absorber layer. This dissertation covers the synthesis of SnZrS₃ and the related compound...

  • Graphite intercalation compounds containing fluoroanions

    Creator:
    Katinonkul, Watcharee
    Abstract:
    New chemical synthesis strategies have been investigated for the preparation of acceptor-type graphite intercalation compounds (GIC's) with fluoroanions in order to obtain new materials and to develop a better understanding of the synthetic approaches and properties of the products. New GIC's containing borate chelate anion such as bis(oxalato)borate, CxB[OC(O)C(O)O]₂•δF, are...

    Creator:
    Fritz, Cara E.
    Abstract:
    A year-long field study was undertaken to investigate the influence of a number of physical and biological factors, specifically temperature, organic carbon content, and shrimp population dynamics on sediment reworking rates by the ghost shrimp Neotrypaea calforniensis. Because of its role as a structuring agent in estuaries along the West...
