This book was released on 2015 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research in optical data storage (ODS) has focused on methods to increase the capacity of ODS media by exploiting the third dimension. Several organic materials have been studied for 3D ODS, and TB-level storage has been achieved using two-photon writing, fluorescent reading schemes, but the fabrication methods are not easily scalable and require expensive laser systems. This work explores the use roll-to-roll multilayer (ML) films produced by co-extrusion of organic polymers for a large capacity, easily scalable, low cost ODS medium. Small layer spacing and FL reading scheme allowed by co-extrusion allows for a much higher axial capacity than commercial discs. The physically multilayered medium improves axial resolution and reduces interlayer cross-talk. A transition from a linear to non-linear writing mechanism that is efficient enough to obtain good contrast is observed near the microsecond time scale. It has also been shown that it is possible to achieve a significant non-linear fluorescence modulation response using dye/polymer system by exploiting dye interactions with ns-pulses from a low-cost CW laser.The last few years have seen increased attention towards low-cost solution-processed bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaic devices (OPV). There are many well-understood film forming techniques, and yet very few of them have been used to fabricate BHJ OPVs. The film forming techniques that have been explored for making OPVs are well suited for individual processing on small flat two-dimensional substrates (i.e. spin coating, doctor blading and drop casting). There are, however, many more film-forming techniques available that have been developed for high volume processing of paper, metal, plastic and textile materials. This work highlights a highly controllable electrolysis-based industrial technique (electrocoating) to fabricate thin films of functionalized Poly(3-alkylthiophene)and [6,6]-Phenyl C61 butyric acid (PCBA) for use in the OPV applications. The process of electrocoating is mainly used to adhere primers or single-layer coatings to metal substrates on the industrial level. It is an established process that produces precise, uniform coatings from water-based dispersions. The electrocoated films show good uniformity without pinholes and show similar optical and dielectric properties as compared to solution processed films.

Download or read book Developing Engineered Thin Films for Applications in Organic Electronic and Photonic Devices written by Srinivasa Kartik Nemani and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Incorporating thin films in electronic and photonic devices has increased their processability, functionality, and durability, while effectively reducing their space requirements and manufacturing costs. This thesis establishes the functionality and incorporation of thin-film organic conductive electrodes made of polymers and carbon-based materials for developing optoelectronic devices for commercial applications. It also proposes a low-cost and facile screening method for evaluating barrier performance of encapsulating materials in electronic and photonic devices. In this thesis, flexible devices are fabricated and their optical, thermal, and barrier performances are evaluated at extreme strain to study their performance under cyclic flexing and bending conditions. The wettability of the devices is improved by harnessing the mechanical instability of the thin-film electrodes incorporated in the devices. Optimal electrothermal and electrochromic responses of the developed devices reiterate the scope and potential for scale-up towards organic thin-films for industrial and commercial applications.

Book excerpt: The rapid development of organic electronics is leading to a number of promising devices in the area of energy sources and conservation (e.g., solar cells and solid-state lighting), while also advancing display technology, sensors, and thin-film transistors. One obstacle to this development is the susceptibility of these devices to water vapor and oxygen, which are well known to cause rapid degradation in many organic electronic devices. In order to guarantee the minimum lifetime needed for various applications, high barrier performance encapsulation materials and structures must be developed and has been the object of much experimental research. However, there is a dearth of comprehensive studies which link the characterization, modeling, and integration of ultra-high barrier films with organic electronics. Such studies are necessary in order to advance the understanding of thin-film encapsulation and to find methodologies which greatly improve its performance.

Download or read book Organic Electronics written by Stephen R. Forrest and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-22 with total page 1070 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook provides a basic understanding of the principles of the field of organic electronics, through to their applications in organic devices. Useful for both students and practitioners, it is a teaching text as well as an invaluable resource that serves as a jumping-off point for those interested in learning, working and innovating in this rapidly growing field. Organics serve as a platform for very low cost and high performance optoelectronic and electronic devices that cover large areas, are lightweight, and can be both flexible and conformable to fit onto irregularly shaped surfaces such as foldable smart phones. Organic electronics is at the core of the global organic light emitting device (OLED) display industry. OLEDs also have potential uses as lighting sources. Other emerging organic electronic applications include organic solar cells, and organic thin film transistors useful in medical and a range of other sensing, memory and logic applications. This book is a product of both one and two semester courses that have been taught over a period of more than two decades. It is divided into two sections. Part I, Foundations, lays down the fundamental principles of the field of organic electronics. It is assumed that the reader has an elementary knowledge of quantum mechanics, and electricity and magnetism. A background knowledge of organic chemistry is not required. Part II, Applications, focuses on organic electronic devices. It begins with a discussion of organic thin film deposition and patterning, followed by chapters on organic light emitters, detectors, and thin film transistors. The last chapter describes several devices and phenomena that are not covered in the previous chapters, since they lie somewhat outside of the current mainstream of the field, but are nevertheless important.

Download or read book Nanoliquid Processes for Electronic Devices written by Tatsuya Shimoda and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes the results of the research on how to make small electronic devices with high properties by using simple liquid processes such as coating, self-assembling and printing, especially focusing on devices composed of silicon and oxide materials. It describes syntheses and analyses of solution materials, formations of solid thin films from solutions, newly developed patterning methods to make devices, and characterization of the developed devices. In the first part of the book, the research on liquid silicon (Si) materials is described. Because the use of a liquid material is a quite new idea for Si devices, this book is the first one to describe liquid Si materials for electronic devices. Si devices as typified by MOS-FET have been produced by using solid and gas materials. This volume precisely describes a series of processes from material synthesis to device fabrication for those who are interested and are/will be engaged in liquid Si-related work. In the latter part of the book, a general method of how to make good oxide films from solutions and a new imprinting method to make nanosized patterns are introduced. For making oxide films with high quality, the designing of the solution is crucial. If a solution is designed properly, a gel material called "cluster gel" can be formed which is able to be imprinted to form nanosized patterns. The anticipated readers of this book are researchers, engineers, and students who are interested in solution and printing processes for making devices. More generally, this book will also provide guidelines for corporate managers and executives who are responsible for making strategies for future manufacturing processes.
