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...
Highly transparent ZnO-based thin-film transistors (TFTs) are fabricated with optical transmission (including substrate) of ~75% in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Current–voltage measurements indicate n-channel, enhancement-mode TFT operation with excellent drain current saturation and a drain current on-to-off ratio of ~10⁷. Threshold voltages and channel mobilities of devices...
The objective of this dissertation is to introduce low-cost processing methods for the fabrication of ZnO transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs). A novel method for depositing ZnO body layers via spin-coating of a zinc nitrate-based spin solution is presented. The processing conditions of spin-coated ZnO are optimized to produce continuous and...
