TRANSCOE – Vývoj nových vodivých priehladných elektród pre organickú elektroniku | |
Development of new designed transparent conductive electrodes for organic electronics | |
Program: | Bilateral – other |
Project leader: | Ing. Fröhlich Karol, DrSc. |
Annotation: | Subject of the proposed project is preparation of new transparent conductive electrodes with high transparency and low sheet resistance for organic photovoltaic\’s (OPVs) and organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). The project will focus on five issues; i) electrode design ii) synthesis of conductive electrodes; iii) fabrication, characterization and optimization of transparent electrodes; iv) fabrication and characterization of OPVs and OLEDs to test the performance of the prepared transparent conductive electrodes; v) encapsulation. We will prepare OPVs and OLEDs with incorporated novel electrode design and test the performances of the devices when the electrode materials will be deposited on glass and/or flexible substrate. Transparent conductive electrodes will be based either on organic Ag-nanowire network -organic multilayered structure or on atomic layer deposited Al-doped ZnO films. The electrodes will be characterized and optimized by measuring the sheet resistance and light transmission. The sheet resistance of the electrode should be adjusted to below 12 Ω and 50 Ω sq−1 for organic and Al-doped ZnO films transparent electrodes, respectively. Finally, OPVs and OLEDs will be encapsulated using atomic layer deposited thin films and their performance will be examined. Proposed project includes two different approaches of transparent conducting electrodes preparation for OPVs and PLEDs. Evaluation of performance of these two types of electrodes presents important and unique output of the project. As a result of the project A step to commercialization of new transparent conductive electrodes, OPVs and OLEDs will be achieved through international collaboration. Funding of the proposed project will create seed for setting up a new research on flexible electronics, Organic Field Effect Transistors (OFETs), Organic Thin Film Transistors (OTFTs), and nanotechnology applications in electronic and photonics for both partners. |

ULTRAGAN – Technológia InAlN(In)GaN heteroštruktúr pre mikrovlnný tranzistor s ultra vysokým výkonom | |
InAlN/(In)GaN heterostructure technology for ultra-high power microwave transistor | |
Program: | FP6 |
Project leader: | Ing. Fröhlich Karol, DrSc. |
Annotation: | Next generation wireless network base stations, satellite communication systems and compact digital radar are just few examples where GaN-based devices can multiply the efficiency of amplifiers. However, improvements in GaN-based High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMTs) are limited by the physics of already established AlGaN/GaN heterostructure system. ULTRAGAN project is aiming to explore new heterostructures using InAlN/(In)GaN alloys. The objective is to triple the HEMTs power density if compared to the state-of-the-art large periphery AlGaN/GaN HEMTs, InAlN/(In)GaN HEMTs are to demonstrate power densities of 30W/mm at 2 to 12 GHz. These parameters can be achieved primarily because of expected extremely high 2-dimensional electron gas density coupled with polarisation fields in the InAlN/(In)GaN heterojunction. The project gives to Europe an opportunity to come back at the edge of the microwave research, which is right now much stronger in the USA. and Japan. Research teams from pure academia to industrial application laboratories will be combined to secure high efficiency research. Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and Metallorganic Chemical Vapour Deposition (MOCVD) techniques will be explored to develop devices including InAlN/GaN single heterojunction (SH) and InAlN /(In)GaN/(In,Al)GaN double heterojunction (DH) systems. Better confinement in the DH is a very attractive approach to limit the role of deep electrical levels by reducing electron emission out of the channel. Moreover the chemistry of InAlN surface is expected to be different to GaN or AlGaN and more stable device surface might be discovered. A strong research will be carried out on the device passivation. In this way transistor I-V instabilities such as drain lags might be eliminated. The project also involves physical and thermal simulation, device processing and a full AC/DC HEMT characterization for a thorough device optimization. The Consortium team is composed of scientists from Austria, France, Germany, Greece, Slovakia and Switzerland. |

Moderné elektronické súčiastky na báze ultraširokopásmového polovodiča Ga2O3 pre budúce vysokonapäťové aplikácie | |
Modern electronic devices based on ultrawide bandgap semiconducting Ga2O3 for future high-voltage applications | |
Program: | SRDA |
Project leader: | Ing. Gucmann Filip, PhD. |
Annotation: | Wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductor devices represent one of the key technologies in development of high power and high frequency systems for electric power conversion and telecommunications owing to their fundamental benefit of higher breakdown electric fields, in some cases increased electron mobility, and possibility to form heterostructures and 2D electron gas. GaN and SiC, two typical WBG examples also benefit from moderate values of thermal conductivity allowing for more efficient sinking of generated waste heat, lower channel temperatures, and enhanced device reliability. New emerging semiconductor materials with even higher bandgap energies (Eg>3.4eV) referred to as ultrawide bandgap materials allow for further improvements in high power and high voltage handling solid-state electronic devices. Currently, semiconducting gallium oxide (Ga2O3) is under extensive study and expected to provide base material for rectifying Schottky -gate diodes and field-effect transistors for applications operating in kV range thanks to its good scalability, relatively simple synthesis, availability of native melt-grown substrates, and wide range of achievable n-type doping levels. The main aim of the proposed project constitutes material research and development of technology for epitaxial growth of epitaxial α -,β-, and ε-Ga2O3 layers and for processing of basic unipolar and bipolar electronic devices based on prepared Ga2O3 layers for future high voltage/power applications. Ga2O3 layers will be grown using liquid injection metalorganic chemical vapour deposition on sapphire, and higher thermal conductivity SiC substrates. We also aim to prepare Schottky diodes, FETs, and all-oxide Ga2O3 PN diodes using naturally p-type oxides (e.g. NiO, In2O3, CuO2). Comprehensive structural, electrical, optical, and thermal study of prepared epitaxial layers and devices will be conducted and numerous original, high-impact results are expected to be obtained. |
