A hybrid transparent conducting layer was applied for Si photodetector. To realize the hybrid transparent conducting layer, a 200 nm-thick ITO layer was deposited onto a Si substrate, following by a solution-processed AgNWs-coating on the ITO. The hybrid transparent conducting layer showed an excellent low electric resistance of $15.9{\Box}/{\Omega}$ with a high optical transparency of 86.89%. Due to these optical and electrical benefits, the hybrid transparent conductor-embedding Si diode provides an extremely high rectifying ratio of 3386. Under light-illumination, the hybrid transparent conductor device provides extremely high photoresponses for broad wavelengths. This implies that a functional design for hybrid transparent conductor is crucial for photoelectric devices and applications.

We have investigated dielectric properties of low fired ceramics BiNbO$_{4}$ containing 0.05[wt%] V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ and x[wt%l Cr$_{2}$O$_{3}$ (x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2). By substituting Cr for Bi, dielectric constant .epsilon.$_{r}$ and quality factor Q.f increased and temperature coefficient of resonant frecquency .tau.$_{f}$ changed to positive value. In the composition of BiNbO$_{4}$+0.05 [Wt%] V$_{2}$O$_{5}$+0.8[wt%]Cr$_{2}$O$_{3}$ sintered at 960[.deg. C], we could obtain microwave dielectric properties of .epsilon.$_{r}$=49, Q.f.simeq.3000[GHz](at 4.8[GHz]), .tau.$_{f}$.simeq.0[ppm/.deg. C]. As the above ceramics can be sintered near 960[.deg. C], it is applicable to multilayer microwave device with Ag conductor.tor.tor.tor.

Printed electronics based on the direct writing of solution processable functional materials have been of paramount interest and importance. In this talk, the synthesis of printable inorganic functional materials (conductors and semiconductors) for thin-film transistors (TFTs) and photovoltaic devices, device fabrication based on a printing technique, and specific characteristics of devices are presented. For printable conductor materials, Ag ink is designed to achieve the long-term dispersion stability and good adhesion property on a glass substrate, and Cu ink is sophisticatedly formulated to endow the oxidation stability in air and even aqueous solvent system. The both inks were successfully printed onto either polymer or glass substrate, exhibiting the superior conductivity comparable to that of bulk one. In addition, the organic thin-film transistor based on the printed metal source/drain electrode exhibits the electrical performance comparable to that of a transistor based on a vacuum deposited Au electrode. For printable amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOSs), I introduce the noble ways to resolve the critical problems, a high processing temperature above $400^{\circ}C$ and low mobility of AOSs annealed at a low temperature below $400^{\circ}C$. The dependency of TFT performances on the chemical structure of AOSs is compared and contrasted to clarify which factor should be considered to realize the low temperature annealed, high performance AOSs. For photovoltaic application, CI(G)S nanoparticle ink for solution processable high performance solar cells is presented. By overcoming the critical drawbacks of conventional solution processed CI(G)S absorber layers, the device quality dense CI(G)S layer is obtained, affording 7.3% efficiency CI(G)S photovoltaic device.
