Photosensitive cadmium telluride thin-film field-effect transistors

Organic Thin Film Field-effect Transistors (otfts) Are Organic Thin Film Transistors

particularly interesting as their fabrication processes are much less complex compared with conventional Si technology, which involves high-temperature and high-vacuum deposition processes and sophisticated photolithographic patterning methods. In general, low-temperature deposition and solution processing can replace the more complicated processes involved in conventional Si technology. In add...

Using atomistic simulations to model cadmium telluride thin film growth.

Cadmium telluride (CdTe) is an excellent material for low-cost, high efficiency thin film solar cells. It is important to conduct research on how defects are formed during the growth process, since defects lower the efficiency of solar cells. In this work we use computer simulation to predict the growth of a sputter deposited CdTe thin film. On-the-fly kinetic Monte Carlo technique is used to s...

Thickness-dependent mobility in tetracene thin-film field-effect-transistors

Field-Effect Mobility of Organic Polymer Thin-Film Transistors

We present a method of extracting the field-effect mobility from the transfer characteristics of organic polymer thin-film transistors (OP-TFTs), in both the linear and saturation regimes, by accounting for the dependence of the mobility on the gate bias, which translates to a dependence on the accumulated density of majority charge carriers in the channel. This method is compared to the common...
