This book was released on 2018 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Single-crystal Si is the bedrock of semiconductor devices due to the high crystalline perfection which minimizes electron-hole recombination, and the dense native silicon oxide which minimizes surface states. To expand the palette of electronic materials beyond planar Si, an inexpensive source of highly ordered material is needed that can serve as an inert substrate for the epitaxial growth of grain boundary-free semiconductors, photonic materials, and superconductors. There is also a need for a simple, inexpensive, and scalable fabrication technique for the growth of semiconductor nanostructures and thin films. This dissertation focuses on the fabrication of semiconducting nanowires (polycrystalline Ge & epitaxial ZnO) and epitaxial thin films (Au & Cu2O) using electrodeposition from an aqueous solution at ambient conditions as a simple benchtop process. Paper I describes a simple one-step electrodeposition of Ge nanowires on an indium-tin oxide substrate decorated with In nanoparticles. An In metal acts both as a catalyst for electrodeposition and as a solvent for recrystallization of the nanowires at ambient conditions. Ge nanowires are an attractive anode material for Li-ion batteries, due to their larger theoretical capacity compared to graphite. Paper II presents a scheme for epitaxial electrodeposition of ultrathin Au films on Si as an inexpensive proxy for single crystal Au for the electrodeposition of epitaxial Cu2O thin films. A detailed study of the epitaxial growth, morphology, junction characteristics, and crystallinity is performed for both the Au and Cu2O thin films. Paper III describes a technique for epitaxial lift-off of wafer-scale Au foils as transparent, single-crystal and flexible substrates for flexible electronics. The Au foils offer the order of traditional single-crystal semiconductors without the constraint of a rigid substrate. An organic light emitting diode is presented to evaluate the flexibility and transparency of Au foils. To study the single crystal nature of Au foil an epitaxial Cu2O thin film inorganic diode with an improved diode quality factor is demonstrated"--Abstract, page iv.

This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zinc oxide has attracted considerable attention due to its good optical, electrical, and piezoelectric properties and its potential applications in diverse areas. The novel functions of ZnO nanostructures arrays have been revealed successfully in the solar cells, gas sensors, piezoelectric, photodetectcors, LED, field emitters and so on. Films with well-aligned ZnO nanorods or nanowires may exhibit much larger surface areas than ZnO films prepared from randomly oriented nanoparticles. A plethora of physical and chemical methods have been used for the synthesis of ZnO nanostructures including physical and chemical techniques. Electrodeposition is of particular interest due to low cost, environmental friendly, and feasibility of room temperature growth. The central idea of this work is to test the applicability of simple and inexpensive electrodeposition technique as an update on previously studied methods for the synthesis of nanocrystalline ZnO thin films for solar cell. In this direction the attempts were made to fabricate zinc oxide nanocrystalline thin films by varying various process parameters and by using novel approaches, as well.
Download or read book Optical Characterization of Doped Zinc Oxide Nanowires written by Faezeh Mohammadbeigi and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ZnO is a promising semiconductor material with a direct band gap energy of 3.3 eV which makes it a good candidate for UV and visible range light emitting devices. Metalorganic chemical vapour epitaxy (MOVPE) provides the possibility of industrial scale growth of ZnO, with very fine control of impurity dopants. Despite the vast recent literature on ZnO, there are very few studies of systematic intentional doping. ZnO nanowires (NWs) can be grown easily on various substrates with high crystalline quality and low defect densities and tend to exhibit reduced substrate induced strain. This enables us to perform careful spectroscopic analysis of impurity related optical transitions and identify the physical nature of various dopant species. A detailed study of low temperature photoluminescence (PL) transitions in doped ZnO NWs, thin films, and bulk crystals grown by MOVPE and chemical vapour transport (CVT) methods is presented. The standard group III donors were first investigated. Donor bound exciton (D0X) transitions previously assigned to Ga, Al, and In were confirmed in intentionally doped samples. Group IV dopants such as carbon, and tin are interesting since they can act in principle as double donors or double acceptors. We report four new shallow D0X transitions (Z-lines), at 3360.8 (Z1), 3361.2 (Z2), 3361.7 (Z3) and 3361.9 (Z4) meV, which can be greatly enhanced by co-doping with carbon tetrachloride and hydrogen. These shallow donors appear to be due to carbon impurities complexed with other unknown defects in four distinct configurations. Carbon-doped samples also exhibit two distinct acceptors with binding energies of 133 ± 5 and 181 ± 5 meV. Doping concentration and temperature dependent PL studies of unintentionally doped and Sn-doped ZnO single crystals confirmed emission from the I10 D0X transition which was recently proven to contain Sn on a Zn site. Sb-doped ZnO NWs were grown in an attempt to produce p-type material as reported by some groups. Our PL studies including Magneto PL, have shown that rather than p-doped material, the addition of small amounts of Sb-dopant resulted in a new PL transition at 3364.3 meV, which turns out to be the shallowest D0X transition so far observed in ZnO.
