Book description
Transparent electronics is emerging as one of the most promising
technologies for the next generation of electronic products, away from
the traditional silicon technology. It is essential for touch display
panels, solar cells, LEDs and antistatic coatings.
The book describes the concept of transparent electronics, passive
and active oxide semiconductors, multicomponent dielectrics and their
importance for a new era of novel electronic materials and products.
This is followed by a short history of transistors, and how oxides
have revolutionized this field. It concludes with a glance at
low-cost, disposable and lightweight devices for the next generation
of ergonomic and functional discrete devices. Chapters cover:
- Properties and applications of n-type oxide semiconductors
- P-type conductors and semiconductors, including copper oxide and
tin monoxide
- Low-temperature processed dielectrics
- n and p-type thin film transistors (TFTs) - structure, physics and
brief history
- Paper electronics - Paper transistors, paper memories and paper
batteries
- Applications of oxide TFTs - transparent circuits, active matrices
for displays and biosensors
Written by a team of renowned world experts, Transparent Oxide
Electronics: From Materials to Devices gives an overview of the
world of transparent electronics, and showcases groundbreaking work on
paper transistors
