a-Si:H-Silicon Hybrid Low Energy X-ray Detector
(University of Waterloo, 2014-09-15)Low energy X-ray (< 20 keV) detection is a key technological requirement in applications such as protein crystallography or diffraction imaging. Silicon based optical cameras based on CCDs or CMOS imaging chips coupled to ... -
Application of Nanocrystalline Silicon in Forward Bias Diodes
(University of Waterloo, 2009-04-13)Nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si:H) is an attractive material for fabrication of low temperature, large area electronic devices due to superior properties versus the traditional amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) and polycrystalline ... -
Development of Advanced Thin Films by PECVD for Photovoltaic Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2013-01-24)Compared to wafer based solar cells, thin film solar cells greatly reduce material cost and thermal budget due to low temperature process. Monolithically manufacturing allows large area fabrication and continuous processing. ... -
Development of Low-Temperature Epitaxial Silicon Films and Application to Solar Cells
(University of Waterloo, 2010-09-30)Solar photovoltaic has become one of the potential solutions for current energy needs and for combating greenhouse gas emissions. The photovoltaics (PV) industry is booming, with a yearly growth rate well in excess of 30% ... -
Organic Thin Film Transistor Integration
(University of Waterloo, 2008-05-23)This thesis examines strategies to exploit existing materials and techniques to advance organic thin film transistor (OTFT) technology in device performance, device manufacture, and device integration. To enhance device ...
