AbstractThe electrical properties of titanium dioxide thin films have been stabilised by cerium doping. These films have a high permittivity between 35 to 45 and withstand 650°C. Multilayer TiO2:Ce/CeO2 insulators have been fabricated. The breakdown voltage is increased by a factor 10 with a modest decrease in the permittivity (30 – 35 instead of 35 – 45).Electroluminescent devices (ELDs) with a classical ZnS:Mn phosphor have been prepared using TiO2:Ce as the first insulator and a TiO2:Ce/CeO2 multilayer as the second insulator. Compared with a standard ELD based on Y2O3 insulators, devices with the new insulators show a significant decrease of the threshold voltage along with a notable increase of the brightness. An important increase is also achieved in the total device efficiency which is maintained over a large range of brightness and transferred charge. Consequences of rapid thermal annealing and conventional thermal treatments on device performance have also been investigated.

ABSTRACTIn order to manufacture organic electronic devices with high performance, more detailed studies of the structure and the morphology of the organic materials as well as the underlying physical charge transport mechanisms are warranted. For instance, high efficiency organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) require materials with high charge carrier mobility [1, 2]. The parameters that determine the charge carrier mobility of the device include the structure of the first organic layer at the organic-dielectric interface as well as the morphology and the structural order of the other organic layers. Therefore, fundamental questions about structural properties of organic materials should be answered in order to optimize device performance [2-4].In this work, several bilayer structures of LiF/PTCDI-C8 and LiF/pentacene were prepared and their morphology and molecular structure were characterized using X-ray reflectivity (XRR) technique. In order to study the effects of the films’ structures and dielectric/organic interfacial properties on the device performance, OTFTs based on these bilayers were fabricated and characterized. It has been observed that PTCDI-C8 thin films have higher molecular packing in the LiF/PTCDI-C8 bilayer structure, which results in superior electrical characteristics for OTFTs based on this organic material. Devices with LiF/PTCDI-C8 bilayer exhibit about one order of magnitude higher output current (Ids) at a constant drain-source voltage (Vds) compared to the devices with LiF/pentacene bilayer. The observed differences in the electrical characteristics of these devices can be attributed to the effects of the dielectric/organic interface and the molecular structure of the organic layers.
