Thermal and Damp Heat Stability of High‐Mobility In₂O₃‐Based Transparent Conducting Films Fabricated at Low Process Temperatures

Microwave Characterization of Transparent Conducting Films

The high frequency conductivity of thin metallic and graphitic nano-films attracts interest due to many potential applications in spin electronics, electromagnetic shielding, flexible antennas, displays, and in solar cells. Surface morphology of thin conducting nano-films typically consists of an isolated clustering structure, which can evolve into a conducting percolated network [1]. The high ...

Electromagnetic absorption in transparent conducting films

In this article we calculate the skin depth of indium tin oxide ~ITO! films ~and related materials! as a result of free electron absorption within the visible spectrum using the simple Drude model. We also discuss the consequences of finite skin depth for the transparency of current spreading layers for light emitting diode ~LED! applications. Low sheet resistances are highly desirable for thes...

On display with transparent conducting films.

Transparent conducting films from NbSe3 nanowires.

We have developed methods to disperse and partially size separate NbSe(3) nanowires in aqueous surfactant solutions. These dispersions can easily be formed into thin films. Optical and electrical studies show these films to display sheet resistances and transmittances ranging from (460 Ω/□, 22%) to (12 kΩ/□, 79%) depending on thickness. For thicker films, we measured the transparent conducting ...

Negative thermal expansion and anomalies of heat capacity of LuB50 at low temperatures.

Heat capacity and thermal expansion of LuB50 boride were experimentally studied in the 2-300 K temperature range. The data reveal an anomalous contribution to the heat capacity at low temperatures. The value of this contribution is proportional to the first degree of temperature. It was identified that this anomaly in heat capacity is caused by the effect of disorder in the LuB50 crystalline st...
