BaCuChF (Ch = S, Se, Te) p-type transparent conductors

Creator:

Zakutayev, Andriy

Abstract:

BaCuChF (Ch = S, Se, Te) materials are chalcogen-based transparent conductors with wide optical band gaps (2.9 – 3.5 eV) and a high concentration of free holes (10¹⁸ – 10²⁰ cm⁻³) caused by the presence of copper vacancies. Chalcogen vacancies compensate copper vacancies in these materials, setting the Fermi level...

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...

Pulsed laser deposition and thin film properties of p-type BaCuSF, BaCuSeF, BaCuTeF and n-type Zn₂In₂O[subscript 5] wide band-gap semiconductors

Creator:

Kykyneshi, Robert

Abstract:

Thin films of wide band-gap semiconductors are deposited by the pulsed laser deposition method. Optimal deposition parameters for the individual compounds are reported. A family of p-type BaCuQF (Q = S, Se, Te) ceramics with a layered crystalline structure is investigated for active and passive device applications. Epitaxial films of...
