We investigate the temperature dependence of efficiency droop in InGaN/GaN multiple-quantum-well (MQW) blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in the temperature range from 20 to $80^{\circ}C$. When the external quantum efficiency (EQE) and the wall-plug efficiency (WPE) of the LED sample were measured as injection current and temperature varied, the droop of EQE and WPE was found to be reduced with increasing temperature. As the temperature increased from 20 to $80^{\circ}C$, the droop ratio of EQE was decreased from 16% to 14%. This reduction in efficiency droop with temperature can be interpreted by a temperature-dependent carrier distribution in the MQWs. When the carrier distribution and radiative recombination rate in MQWs were simulated and compared for different temperatures, the carrier distribution was found to become increasingly homogeneous as the temperature increased, which is believed to partly contribute to the reduction in efficiency droop with increasing temperature.

The most prominent challenge for MOSFET scaling is to reduce power consumption; however, the supply voltage ($V_{DD}$) cannot be scaled down because of the carrier injection mechanism. To overcome this limit, a new type of field-effect transistor using positive feedback as a carrier injection mechanism (FBFET) has been proposed. In this study we have investigated the electrical characteristics of a $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ FBFET with one gate and one-sided $Si_3N_4$ spacer using TCAD simulations. To reduce the drain bias dependency, $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ was introduced as a low-bandgap material, and the minimum subthreshold swing was obtained as 2.87 mV/dec. This result suggests that a $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ FBFET is a promising candidate for future low-power devices.

The 8-hydroxyquinoline Zinc(Znq2) were prepared successfully from zinc chloride and zinc acetate as two kinds of starting material. The organic electroluminescent devices(ELDs) were fabricated by the structure of ITO/TPD/Znq2/Al with N-N'-diphenyl-N-N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine(TPD) which acts hole trasporting layer and bis(8-oxyquinolino) zinc(II)(Znq2) which acts as emission and electron transporting layer. EL efficiency of Znq2 prepared by heating was investigated. The 570nm of main emission peak which is yellowich green was investigated by photo luminesence(PL) and this results shows that electro luminescence(EL) is from Znq2. The V-J curve shows that carrier injection were investigated from 4V. Maximum luminance and luminance efficiency were 1600cd/$\m^2$, 0.9lm/W. From this results, the Znq2 can be one of the useful organic EL material.

In this study, we have fabricated and characterized vertical double-gate (DG) InGaAs tunnel field-effect-transistors (TFETs) with Al₂O₃/HfO₂ = 1/5 nm bi-layer gate dielectric by employing a top-down approach. The device exhibited excellent characteristics including a minimum subthreshold swing of 60 mV/decade, a maximum transconductance of 141 µS/㎛, and an on/off current ratio of over 10³ at 20℃. Although the TFETs were fabricated using a dry etch-based top-down approach, the values of DIBL and hysteresis were as low as 40 mV/V and below 10 mV, respectively. By evaluating the effects of constant voltage and hot carrier injection stress on the vertical DG InGaAs TFET, we have identified the dominant charge trapping mechanism in TFETs.

The efficiency of silicon solar cells is approaching a theoretical limit referred to as 'the state of the art'. Consequently, maintaining efficiency is more productive than pursuing improvements the last room for limiting efficiency. One of the primary considerations in silicon module conservation is the occurrence of failures and degradation. Degradation can be mitigated during the cell manufacturing stage, unlike physical and spontaneous failure. It is mostly because the chemical reaction is triggered by the carrier generation of thermal and light injection, an inherent aspect of the solar cell environment. Therefore, numerous researchers and cell manufacturers are engaged in implementing mitigation strategies based on the physical degradation mechanism.

Metal/poly (4,4'-aminotriphen-ylene hexafluoroisopropylidenediphthalimide) (TP6F PI)/metal structure exhibited an electrically volatile phase transition with high (OFF) or low (ON) resistive states when voltage between electrodes swept. Here, we demonstrate a noble set-up in which holes are injected by photoelectron emission process during the voltage sweep instead of direct charge carrier injection via metal electrode, which enables direct investigation into changed electronic structures of TP6F PI both in ON and OFF states using photoemission spectroscopy methods. In the I-V measurement, TP6F PI shows a non-volatile behavior. In spectroscopic results, this non-volatile behavior is leaded from the structural modification of the O=C double bond in phthalimide of TP6F PI by hole injection.

This paper present Phase Shifted with carrier based on Sinusoidal PWM(SPWM) by using Cascaded NPC/H-birdge converter. The proposed Phase Shifted PWM method is adding third harmonic injection in switching signal. The advantage of the proposed method is reducing the voltage and capacity of the capacitor. This paper compare general Phase Shifted method with proposed Phase Shifted method that added the third harmonic injection. Each PWM method is tested without considering the switching loss by using PSIM 9.1.4 simulation.

Recent technical advances in OLEDs (organic light emitting devices) requires more and more the improvement in low operation voltage, long lifetime, and high luminance efficiency. Inverted top emission OLEDs (ITOLED) appeared to overcome these problems. This evolved to operate better luminance efficiency from conventional OLEDs. First, it has large open area so to be brighter than conventional OLEDs. Also easy integration is possible with Si-based driving circuits for active matrix OLED. But, a proper buffer layer for carrier injection is needed in order to get a good performance. The buffer layer protects underlying organic materials against destructive particles during the electrode deposition and improves their charge transport efficiency by reducing the charge injection barrier. Hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile (HAT-CN), a discoid organic molecule, has been used successfully in tandem OLEDs due to its high workfunction more than 6.1 eV. And it has the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) level near to Fermi level. So it plays like a strong electron acceptor. In this experiment, we measured energy level alignment and hole current density on inverted OLED structures for hole injection. The normal film structure of Al/NPB/ITO showed bad characteristics while the HAT-CN insertion between Al and NPB greatly improved hole current density. The behavior can be explained by charge generation at the HAT-CN/NPB interface and gap state formation at Al/HAT-CN interface, respectively. This result indicates that a proper organic buffer layer can be successfully utilized to enhance hole injection efficiency even with low work function Al anode.
