Organic semiconductor density of states controls the energy level alignment at electrode interfaces
Minimizing charge carrier injection barriers and extraction losses at interfaces between organic semiconductors and metallic electrodes is critical for optimizing the performance of organic (opto-) electronic devices. Here, we implement a detailed electrostatic model, capable of reproducing the alignment between the electrode Fermi energy and the transport states in the organic semiconductor bo...
متن کاملSpin transport through GaAs/GaMnAs/GaAs
This work addresses spin-dependent transport in the heterostructure p-GaAs/GaMnAs/p-GaAs. The diluted ferromagnetic semiconductor GaMnAs layer behaves, within mean field approximation, as a potential well for spin-down carriers and a potential barrier for spin-up ones. Thus the transport would be spin-dependent. The goal of this work is to devise spin filters relevant for spin-dependent optoele...
متن کاملParasitic resistance in bottom-contact pentacene thin-film transistors that use water- dispersible polyaniline electrodes
Introduction Organic thin-film transistors (TFT) have received considerable attention due to promises of low manufacturing costs, ease of processibility, and extendibility to flexible circuits. The feasibility of organic TFTs has largely been demonstrated with devices that use metal source and drain electrodes, such as gold and palladium. Such devices, when fabricated in the bottom-contact (BC)...
متن کاملTunnel barrier fabrication on Si and its impact on a spin transistor
The realization of many future spintronic devices requires efficient spin injection into semiconductor structures. Critical considerations include interfacial intermixing of the metallic components and oxygen with Si, and the conditions for Schottky barrier formation. Both impact the design of a silicon-based spin transistor, which tunnelinjects carriers from a ferromagnetic emitter into the Si...
متن کاملElectrical and Thermal Analysis of Single Conductor Power Cable Considering the Lead Sheath Effect Based on Finite Element Method
This paper investigates the effect of metallic sheaths on losses and temperature of medium voltage power cables. Two grounding methods of sheaths, including both ends bonding and single point bonding that causes different situations on cable ampacity, are considered. Electrical losses of cables that are main sources of heat are calculated in both conductor and metallic sheath of the cables. She...
