Intrinsically stretchable light-emitting diodes, composed of stretchable electrodes, charge transport layers, and luminescent materials, have garnered significant interest for enhancing human well-being and advancing the field of deformable electronics. Various luminescent materials, such as perovskites and organics, have been integrated with stretchable elastomers to function as the stretchable emissive layers in these intrinsically stretchable LEDs. Stretchable conductors including Ag nanowire based percolating structures and conducting polymers have been utilized as stretchable transparent electrode. Despite this progress, their performances in terms of efficiency and stability remain challenging compared to their structurally stretchable and rigid LED counterparts. This review offers a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in intrinsically stretchable LEDs, focusing on material innovations.
In this paper, a single N+ emitter trench gate-type insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) device was studied using T-CAD, in order to achieve a low on-state voltage drop (Vce-sat) and high breakdown voltage, which would reduce power loss and device reliability. Using the simulation, the threshold voltage, breakdown voltage, and on-state voltage drop were studied as a function of the temperature, the length of time in the diffusion process (drive-in) after implant, and the trench gate depth. During the drive-in process, a 20℃ change in temperature from 1,000 to 1,160℃ over a 150 minute time frame resulted in a 1 to 4 V change in the threshold voltage and a 24 to 2.6 V change in the on-state voltage drop. As a result, a 0.5 um change in the trench depth of 3.5 to 7.5 um resulted in the breakdown voltage decreasing from 802 to 692 V.
Rapid thermal processing (RTP) abruptly decreases the time required to perform solar cell processes. RTP were used to form emitter of crystalline silicon solar cells. The emitter sheet resistance is studied as a function of time and temperature. The objective of this study is reduction of doping process time with same performance. Emitter diffusion was carried out by using a spin oil doping and a RTP. Rapid thermal diffusion was performed in the temperature range of 700750 for Tm 30s- 15 m. Thermal budgets yielded a 50 2/sq emitter using a P509 source. To reduce process time and get high efficiency, rapid thermal diffusion by JR lamp was employed in air atmosphere at 700 t for 15 m.
The use of plated front contact for metallization of silicon solar cell may alternative technologies as a screen printed and silver paste contact. This technologies should allow the formation of contact with low contact resistivity a high line conductivity and also reduction of shading losses. A selective emitter structure with highly dopes regions underneath the metal contacts, is widely known to be one of the most promising high-efficiency solution in solar cell processing. When fabricated Ni/Cu plating metallization cell with a selective emitter structure, it has been shown that efficiencies of up to 18% have been achieved using this technology.
