Development of a suitable thin-film technology has stimulated research in, and production of, a.c. thin film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) devices. The aim of this thesis is to provide a better understanding of the physical processes associated with the device characteristics
of such ACTFEL devices. The unique phenomena exhibited by these devices...
