Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) Process Development of Nb-doped TiO₂ as a Transparent Conducting Oxide (TCO) and ALD of HfO₂/Nb₂O₅ Bilayers as Insulating Barriers for Metal/Insulator/Insulator/Metal (MIIM) Diodes

Creator:: Lin, Shijia
Abstract:: Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs), primarily indium doped tin oxide, have been widely used in numerous fields since decades ago, such as solar cells, displays, OLEDs and ‘smart windows’ etc. Owing to the scarcity of indium, there is a great demand for new alternative materials. Metal/insulator/metal (MIM) diodes are a critical...

Electrically tunable thin-film inductors based on synthetic antiferromagnet cores

Creator:: An, Na
Abstract:: The objective of this research is to demonstrate the feasibility of implementing electrically tunable on-chip inductors based on synthetic antiferromagnet (SAF) cores. This thin film magnetic core is made of a magnetic bi-layer antiferromagnetically coupled through a nonmagnetic spacer layer. An energy model is developed to investigate the magnetic behavior...

Design, fabrication, and testing of inhomogeneous dielectrics

Creator:: Lim, Sungkyoo
Abstract:: In this thesis the concept of inhomogeneous dielectrics is demonstrated for various optical coating applications. Compositionally-varying silicon oxynitride (SiON) dielectric layers, with the refractive index varying as a function of position, are grown by computer-controlled plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) using silane, nitrogen, and nitrous oxide reactant gases. Compositionally graded...

Amorphous metal thin films as a platform for solution processing

Creator:: Landau, Nicholas P.
Abstract:: The research presented herein represents an effort to combine the ultra-smooth surface of an amorphous metal thin ﬁlm (AMTF) with a solution-processed dielectric synthesized via prompt inorganic condensation (PIC). Analysis of dielectric ﬁlm quality is carried out via electrical measurements of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) diodes. Anneals at 500 and 700 °C...

Modeling, Fabrication, and Characterization of Magnetic Thin Films for Integrated Inductor and MRAM Applications

Creator:: Buford, Benjamin
Abstract:: Magnetic thin films have potential to improve devices such as on-chip inductors, and enable new technologies such as magnetic random access memory (MRAM). The use of magnetic cores in on-chip inductors is typically limited to applications well under 1 GHz. At higher frequencies, the performance of the magnetic core is...

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...

Transparent electronics : thin-film transistors and integrated circuits

Creator:: Presley, Rick E.
Abstract:: This thesis focuses on two aspects of transparent electronics, SnO₂ transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs) and transparent circuits. Both depletion- and enhancement-mode SnO₂ TTFTs are realized. The maximum effective mobility for the depletion- and enhancement-mode devices are 2 cm²V⁻¹s⁻¹ and 0.8 cm²V⁻¹s⁻¹, respectively. A variety of techniques to decrease the carrier...

Capacitance-voltage analysis, SPICE modeling, and aging studies of AC thin-film electroluminescent devices

Creator:: Davidson, James D. (James Douglas), 1960-
Abstract:: Alternating-current thin-film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) devices are metal-insulator-semiconductorinsulator- metal (MISIM) structures which emit light under high field, pulsed excitation. One aspect of ACTFEL operation that is not well understood is the aging of such devices with operating time. One of the primary goals of this thesis is to characterize the kinetics...
