A transparent quantum dot (QD)-based light-emitting diode (LED) with silver nanowire (Ag NW) and indium-tin oxide (ITO) hybrid electrode is demonstrated. The device consists of an Ag NW-ITO hybrid cathode (-), zinc oxide, poly (9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), CdSe/CdZnS QD, tungsten trioxide, and ITO anode (+). The device shows pure green-color emission peaking at 548 nm, with a narrow spectral half width of 43 nm. Devices with hybrid cathodes show better performances, including higher luminance with higher current density, and lower threshold voltage of 5 V, compared with the reference device with a pure Ag NW cathode. It is worth noting that our transparent device with hybrid cathode exhibits a lifetime 9,300 seconds longer than that of a device with Ag NW cathode. This is the reason that the ITO overlayer can protect against oxidization of Ag NW, and the Ag NW underlayer can reduce the junction resistance and spread the current efficiently. The hybrid cathode for our transparent QD LED can applicable to other quantum structure-based optical devices.

Staggered type self-aligned transparent-oxide-semiconductor transistors with indium-zinc-oxide as a semiconductor have studied. In this device fabrication, successive sputtering of oxide semiconductor and insulator without breaking of vacuum and without exposing in air, humidity and oxygen can be realized because oxide semiconductor is transparent. As a result of fabrication, transistor characteristics with mobility of $30cm^2/Vs$ and on-off ratio of $10^5$ could be obtained for the newly developed self-alignment device structure.

One novel electrode-architecture has been adapted to fabricate transparent OTFTs. The device has more than 70% transmittance, yet reminds high performance. Furthermore, we also use transfer line method to prove that the device performance enhancement indeed contributes from the reduction of the contact resistances. It is anticipated that the transparent OTFTs would be very suitable to be the driving circuits for liquid crystal displays (LCDs).

The present work explains the interfacial energetics of all oxide transparent photodiodes. The optical, structural and morphological of copper oxides were systematically analyse by UV-Visible spectrometer, X-Ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Atomic force microscopy measurements (AFM). The UV-Visible result exhibits optical bandgap of Cu2O and CuO as 2.2 and 2.05 eV respectively. SEM and AFM result shows a uniform grain size distribution in Cu2O and CuO thin films with the average grain size of 45 and 40 nm respectively. The results of Current-Voltage and Kelvin probe force microscope characteristics describe the electrical responses of the Cu2O/ZnO and CuO/ZnO heterojunctions photodiodes. The obtained electrical response depicts the approximately same knee voltages with a measurable difference in the absolute value of net terminal current. More over the present study realizes the all oxide transparent photodiode with zero bias photocurrent. The presented results lay the template for fabricating and analysing the self-bias all oxide transparent photodetector.

An all-transparent ultraviolet (UV) photodetector was fabricated by structuring $p-NiO/n-SnO_2/ITO$ on a glass substrate. $SnO_2$ is an important semiconductor material because of its large bandgap, high electron mobility, high transmittance (as high as 80% in the visible range), and high stability under UV light. For these reasons, $SnO_2$ is suitable for a range of applications that involve UV light. In order to form a highly transparent p-n junction for UV detection, $SnO_2$ was deposited onto a device containing NiO as a high-transparent metal conductive oxide for UV detection. We demonstrated that all-transparent UV photodetectors based on $SnO_2$ could provide a definitive photocurrent density of $4nA\;cm^{-2}$ at 0 V under UV light (365 nm) and a low saturation current density of $2.02nA{\times}cm^{-2}$. The device under UV light displayed fast photoresponse with times of 31.69 ms (rise-time) and 35.12 ms (fall-time) and a remarkable photoresponse ratio of 69.37. We analyzed the optical and electrical properties of the $NiO/SnO_2$ device. We demonstrated that the excellent properties of $SnO_2$ are valuable in transparent photoelectric device applications, which can suggest various routes for improving the performance of such devices.

A high-performing all-transparent photodetector was created by configuring a $MoO_x$/NiO/ZnO/ITO structure on a glass substrate. The ITO bottom layer was applied as a back contact. To achieve the transparent p/n junction, p-type NiO was coated on the n-type ZnO layer. Reactive sputtering was used to spontaneously form the ZnO or NiO layer. In order to improve the transparent photodetector performance, the functional $MoO_x$ window layer was used. Optically, the $MoO_x$ window provided a refractive index layer (n=1.39) lower than that of NiO (n=2), increasing the absorption of the incident light wavelengths (${\lambda}s$). Moreover, the $MoO_x$ window can provide a lower sheet resistance to improve the carrier collection for the photoresponses. The $MoO_x$/NiO/ZnO/ITO device showed significantly better photoresponses of 877.05 (at ${\lambda}$=460nm), 87.30 (${\lambda}$=520 nm), and 30.38 (${\lambda}$=620 nm), compared to 197.28 (${\lambda}$=460 nm), 51.74 (${\lambda}$=520 nm) and 25.30 (${\lambda}$=620 nm) of the NiO/ZnO/ITO device. We demonstrated the high-performing transparent photodetector by using the multifunctional $MoO_x$ window layer.

The silver nanowires (AgNWs) were synthesized by the conventional polyol process, which revealed 25 ㎛ and 30 nm of average length and diameter, respectively. The synthesized AgNWs were applied to the CdSe/CdZnS quantum dot (QD) based transparent light-emitting device (LED). The device using a randomly networked AgNWs electrode had some problems such as the high threshold voltage (for operating the device) due to the random pores from the networked AgNWs. As a method of improvement, a composite electrode was formed by overlaying the ZnO:Ga on the AgNWs network. The device used the composite electrode revealed a low threshold voltage (4.4 Vth) and high current density compared to the AgNWs only electrode device. The brightness and current density of the device using composite electrode were 55.57 cd/㎡ and 41.54 mA/㎠ at the operating voltage of 12.8 V, respectively, while the brightness and current density of the device using (single) AgNWs only were 1.71 cd/㎡ and 2.05 mA/㎠ at the same operating voltage. The transmittance of the device revealed 65 % in a range of visible light. Besides the reliability of the devices was confirmed that the device using the composite electrode revealed 2 times longer lifetime than that of the AgNWs only electrode device.

All transparent metal oxide photoelectric device based on $V_2O_5$ was fabricated with structure of $V_2O_5/ZnO/ITO$ by magnetron sputtering system. $V_2O_5$ was deposited by reactive sputtering system with 4 inch vanadium target (purity 99.99%). In order to achieve p-n junction, p-type $V_2O_5$ was deposited onto the n-type ZnO layer. The ITO (indium tin oxide) was applied as the electron transporting layer for effective collection of the photo-induced electrons. Electrical and optical properties were analyzed. The Mott-Schottky analysis was applied to investigate the energy band diagram through the metal oxide layers. The $V_2O_5/ZnO/ITO$ photoelectric device has a rectifying ratio of 99.25 and photoresponse ratios of 1.6, 4.88 and 2.68 under different wavelength light illumination of 455 nm, 560 nm and 740 nm. Superior optical properties were realized with the high transmittance of average 70 % for visible light range. Transparent $V_2O_5$ layer absorbs the short wavelength light efficiently while passing the visible light. This research may provide a route for all-transparent photoelectric devices based on the adoption of the emerging p-type $V_2O_5$ metal oxide layer.

This thesis described the optical and electrical properties of the alternating current powder electroluminescent device based on Ag nanowire as a transparent electrode. The Ag nanowire electrode showed the morphology of 20 nm in diameter and 15 ㎛ in length. The transparent electroluminescent devices that were fabricated using the nanomilled ZnS : Cu, Mn phosphor by bar-coating process showed the transmittance of 67%. In order to improve the luminous efficiency, it is necessary to apply the transparent dielectric layer and increase the amount of the nanophosphor while maintaining the transmittance.
