|The name "charge injection" describes the operation of a generic class of electronic and optoelectronic multiterminal semiconductor devices, based on the real space transfer of hot carriers over a potential barrier into adjacent and separately contacted layers. Charge injection devices enable the implementation of compact optoelectronic gates endowed with a powerful logic functionality. Keywor...

The Coulomb force applied by an electric field on any charge present in a dielectric liquid may cause fluid motion. At high applied electric fields in an insulating liquid, electric charge carriers are created at metallic/liquid interfaces, a process referred to as ion injection, and result from electrochemical reactions. In this article we deals with the problem of electro thermal convection i...

The inclusion of a charge injection structure on a charge coupled device (CCD) allows for the mitigation of charge transfer losses caused by radiation induced charge trapping defects. Any traps present in the pixels of the CCD are filled by the injected charge as it is swept through the device improving the charge transfer efficiency in the subsequent acquired images. To date, a number of CCD t...

In laser structures where the active region consists of several quantum wells, non-uniform charge injection can occur. We examine the consequences of non-uniform charge injection on gain, threshold current, and linewidth enhancement factor. Non-uniform charge injection in a InP-based multiple quantum well laser was considered in order to analyze effects on gain, threshold current, and linewidth...

Multidielectric polyethylene is a material that is generally employed as insulation for  the HVDC isolations. In this paper, the influence of temperature on space charge dynamics has been studied, low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene (FEP) sandwiched between two electrodes were subjected to voltage application of 5kV (14.3 kV/mm) for extended duration of time ...

The charge behavior of organic light emitting diode (OLED) is investigated by steady-state current-voltage technique and impedance spectroscopy at various temperatures to obtain activation energies of charge injection and transport processes. Good agreement of activation energies obtained by steady-state and frequency-domain was used to analyze their contributions to the charge injection and tr...
