In this paper, we propose Time-Division-Multiplexing Tertiary Offset Carrier (TDMTOC), a novel GNSS modulation based on Tertiary Offset Carrier (TOC) modulation. The TDMTOC modulation multiplexes two three-level signals (i.e., -1, 0, and 1) while crossing over time, and is a type of TOC modulation designed specifically for signal multiplexing. The proposed modulation generates TDMTOC subcarriers of two different phases by simply combining two Binary Offset Carrier (BOC) subcarriers by addition or subtraction. TDMTOC has better correlation and spectral properties than conventional BPSK, BOC, and MBOC modulation techniques, and has good power and spectral efficiency since it can multiplex signals without power loss similar to time division multiplexing. To prove this, we introduce the multiplexing process of TDMTOC, and compare TDMTOC with Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK), BOC, Composite BOC (CBOC), and Time Multiplexed BOC (TMBOC) that are currently serviced in GNSS by simulations of various aspects. Through the simulation results, we prove that TDMTOC has better correlation property than modulations currently used in GNSS, less intersystem interference due to its wide spectrum property, and robustness in multipath and noise channel environments.

Applying the moving photo-carrier grating(MPG) technique and time-of-flight(TOF) measurements, we studied the transport properties of stabilized amorphous selenium typical of the material used in direct conversion X-ray imaging devices. For MPG measurement, we obtained electron and hole mobility and the recombination lifetime of $\alpha-Se$ films with arsenic(As) additions. We found an apparent increase in hole drift mobility and recombination lifetime, especially when 0.3 % As was added into $\alpha-Se$ film, whereas electron mobility decreased with the addition of As due to the defect density. For TOF measurement, a laser beam with pulse duration of 5 ns and wavelength of 350 nm was illuminated on the surface of $\alpha-Se$ with a thickness of 400 ${\mu}m$. The measured hole and electron transit times were about 8.73 ${\mu}s$ and 229.17 ${\mu}s$, respectively.

In this study, RF magnetron sputtering was used to investigate the relationship between oxygen vacancy and carrier concentration in a GZO film on an amorphous structure. RF power was fixed at 50W and Ar flow was changed on a glass plate to create a thin film at room temperature. The transmittance of Al-adopted amorphous GZO was measured at 85% or higher; therefore, the transmittance was shown to be outstanding in all films. The hall mobility was also shown to be higher at the film showing the high transmittance at a short-wavelength, whereas the optical energy gap was shown to be higher at the film with high oxygen vacancy. The oxygen vacancy at the amorphous oxide semi-conductor increased the optical energy gap while it was not directly involved in increasing the mobility. The oxygen vacancy increases the carrier concentration while lowering the quality of amorphous structure; such factor, therefore affected the mobility. The increase of amorphous property is a direct way to increase the mobility of amorphous oxide semi-conductor.

The moving photocarrier grating(MPG) technique for the determination of the carrier mobilities and the recombination lifetime in a-Se:As films have been studied. The electron and hole drift mobility and the recombination lifetime of a-Se films with arsenic (As) additions have been obtained. We have found an increase in hole drift mobility and recombination lifetime, especially when 0.3% As is added into a-Se film. However, the electron mobility exhibits no observable change up to 0.5% As addition in a-Se films.0.3% As added a-Se film also exhibits the maximum short circuit current densities per laser intensity of $5.29\times10^{-7}$ A/W.

The transport properties of amorphous selenium typical of the material used in direct conversion x-ray imaging devices are reported. The effects of As addition on the carrier mobility and recombination lifetime in amorphous selenium (a-Se) films have been studied using the moving photocarrier grating (MPG) technique. We have found an increase in hole drift mobility and recombination lifetime, especially when 0.3% As is added into a-Se film, whereas electron mobility decreases with As addition due to the defect density. The transport properties for As doped a-Se films obtained by using MPG technique have been compared with the drift mobilities of holes and electrons obtained by time of flight (TOF) measurement.

We discuss several key technologies of liquid crystal displays (LCDs) that share common features of all organic displays (AODs). An overview of the morphological effects associated with molecular ordering at interfaces on the Crystallinity and the carrier mobility in organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) is given from the viewpoint of the alignment mechanism for LCDs. Recent progress of improving the carrier mobility in the OTFTs is also reviewed.

GaAs single crystals were grown epitaxially from Ga solution with carrier concentrations in the range and electron mobilities between 7,500 and 9,300$\textrm{cm}^2$/v-sec. at 300$^{\circ}$K, and 50,000 and 95,000 $\textrm{cm}^2$/V-sec. at 77$^{\circ}$K. A comparison of the theoretical and experimental curves for the mobility vs. temperature indicates that the significant scattering mechanisms are ionized impurities and phonons in the temperature range of 77$^{\circ}$K to 439$^{\circ}$K. This indicates that the epitaxial layers do not contain other mobility limiting imperfections to a significant degree. Photoluminescence spectra of the. epitaxial layers did not show any emission due to deep lying imperfection leve1s.

We report an optical second harmonic generation measurement that allows direct probing of dynamical carrier motion in organic field effect transistors. Carrier injection and transport process are discriminated. The mobility and contact resistance of pentacene FETs are determined from the visualized diffusion-like carrier motion.

In order to combine advantages of ZnO thin film transistors (TFTs) with a high on-off ratio and graphene TFTs with extremely high carrier mobility, we present a facile methodology for fabricating ZnO thin film/graphene hybrid two-dimensional TFTs. Hybrid TFTs exhibited ambipolar behavior, an outstanding electron mobility of $329.7{\pm}16.9cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, and a high on-off ratio of $10^5$. The ambipolar behavior of the ZnO/graphene hybrid TFT with high electron mobility could be due to the superimposed density of states involving the donor states in the bandgap of ZnO thin films and the linear dispersion of monolayer graphene. We further established an applicable circuit model for understanding the improvement in carrier mobility of ZnO/graphene hybrid TFTs.
