Hole mobility characteristics of two representative biaxially strained SiGe/Si structures with high Ge contents are studied, They are single channel ($Si/Si_{1-x}Ge_x/Si$ substrate) and dual channel ($Si/Si_{1-y}Ge_y/Si_{1-x}Ge_x/Si$ substrate), where the former consists of a relaxed SiGe buffer layer with 60 % Ge content and a tensile-strained Si layer on top, and for the latter, a compressively strained SiGe layer is inserted between two layers, Owing to the hole mobility performance between a relaxed SiGe film and a compressive-strained SiGe film in the single channel and the dual channel, the hole mobility behaviors of two structures with respect to the Si cap layer thickness shows the opposite trend, Hole mobility increases with thicker Si cap layer for single channel structure, whereas it decreases with thicker Si cap layer for dual channel. This hole mobility characteristics could be easily explained by a simple capacitance model.

We calculated the drift-velocities of electrons and holes of I $n_{0.53}$(A $l_{x}$G $a_{1-x}$ )$_{0.47}$As, which is used for semiconductor materials of high performance HBTs, along with the various doping concentrations and Al mole fractions as well as the electric fields by Monte Carlo experiment. Especially, for the valence bands the accuracy of hole-drift-velocity was improved in the consideration of intervalley scattering due to the inelastic scattering of acoustic phonon. From the results the empirical formulas of the low- and high field mobility of electrons and holes were extracted by using nonlinear least square fitting method. The accuracy of the formulas was proved by comparing the formula of low-field electron mobility as well as drift-velocity of I $n_{0.53}$ G $a_{0.47}$As and of low-field hole mobility of GaAs with the measured values, where the error was below 10%. For the high-field mobilities of electron and hole the results calculated by the formulas were very well matched with the MC experimental results except at the narrow field range where the electrons produced the velocity overshoot and the corresponding error was about 30%.0%. 30%.0%.

We were designed the hole transport layer of the new composite skeleton structure having a high charge mobility and thermal stability. In this paper, a hole transport layer material based on thiophene molecular structure capable of hole mobility characteristics and high triplet energy was designed and synthesized. The structures and properties of the synthesized compounds were characterized by NMR, fluorescence spectroscopy and energy band gap. As a result of NMR measurement, it was confirmed that when analyzing the integrated type with the position where the measured peak is displayed, it agrees with the structure of hole transport materials. The emission characteristics of the hole transport layer material showed absorption characteristics at 412 nm and 426 nm, respectively, and exhibited emission characteristics in the range of 469 nm and 516 nm.

Geminate electron-hole recombination in organic solids in the presence of a donor-acceptor heterojunction is studied by computer simulations. We analyze how the charge-pair separation probability in such systems is affected by energetic disorder of the media, anisotropy of charge-carrier mobilities, and other factors. We show that in energetically disordered systems the effect of heterojunction on the charge-pair separation probability is stronger than that in idealized systems without disorder. We also show that a mismatch between electron and hole mobilities reduces the separation probability, although in energetically disordered systems this effect is weaker compared to the case of no energetic disorder. We demonstrate that the most important factor that determines the charge-pair separation probability is the ratio of the sum of electron and hole mobilities to the rate constant of recombination reaction. We also consider systems with mobility anisotropy and calculate the electric field dependence of the charge-pair separation probability for all possible orientations of high-mobility axes in the donor and acceptor phases. We theoretically show that it is possible to increase the charge-pair separation probability by controlling the mobility anisotropy in heterojunction systems and in consequence to achieve higher efficiencies of organic photovoltaic devices.

The OLEDs(Organic Light-Emitting Diodes) structure organizes the bottom layer using glass, ITO(indium thin oxide), hole injection layer, hole transport layer, emitting material layer, electron transport layer, electron injection layer and cathode using metal. OLED has various advantages. OLEDs research has been divided into structural side and emitting material side. The amount of emitting light and luminescence efficiency has been improved by continuing effort for emitting material layer. The emitting light mechanism of OLEDs consists of electrons and holes injected from cathode and anode recombination in emitting material layer. The mobilities of injected electrons and holes are different. The mobility of holes is faster than that of electrons. In order to get high luminescence efficiency by recombine electrons and holes, the balance of their mobility must be set. The more complex thin film structure of OLED becomes, the more understanding about physical phenomenon in each interface is needed. This paper observed what the thickness change of hole transport layer has an affection through the below experiments. Moreover, this paper uses numerical analysis about carrier transport layer thickness change on the basis of these experimental results that agree with simulation results.

We investigated the characteristics of Strained-Si-on-Insulator (sSOI) MOSFETs with 0.7% tensile strain. The sSOI MOSFETs have superior subthreshold swing under 70 mV/dec and output current. Especially, the electron and hole were increased in sSOI MOSFET. The electron and hole mobility in sSOI MOSFET were 286$cm^2/Vs$ and 151$cm^2/Vs$, respectively. The carrier mobility enhancement is due to the subband splitting by 0.7% tensile strain.

The lead-based perovskite (CH3NH3PbI3) material has a high molar coefficient, high crystallinity at low temperature, and long range of balanced electron-hole transport length. In addition, PCE of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has been dramatically improved by over 22% by amending the electronic quality of perovskite and by using state-of-the-art hole transporting materials (HTMs) such as tetrakis(N,N-di-p-methoxyphenylamine)-9,9'-spirobifluorene (spiro-OMeTAD) due to enhanced charge transport toward the electrode via properly aligned energy levels with respect to the perovskite. Replacing the spiro-OMeTAD with new HTMs with the desired properties of appropriate energy levels, high hole mobility in its pristine form, low cost, and easy processable materials is necessary for attaining highly efficient and stable PSCs, which are anticipated to be truly compatible for practical application. Furthermore, Recently Pb-free perovskite materials much attention as an alternative light-harvesting active layer material instead of lead based perovskite in photovoltaic cells. In this work, we demonstrate a Pb-free perovskite material for the light harvesting and emitter as optoelectronic devices.

In the past decades, green energy, such as solar energy, wind power, hydropower, biomass energy, geothermal energy, and so on, has been widely investigated and developed to solve energy shortage. Recently, organic solar cells have attracted much attention, because they have many advantages, including low-cost, flexibility, light weight, and easy fabrication [1-3]. Organic solar cells are as a potential candidate of the next generation solar cells. In this abstract, to improve the power conversion efficiency and the stability, the inverted polymer solar cells with various structures were developed [4-6]. The novel cell structures included the P3HT:PCBM inverted polymer solar cells with AZO nanorods array, with pentacene-doped active layer, and with extra P3HT interfacial layer and PCBM interfacial layer. These three difference structures could respectively improve the performance of the P3HT:PCBM inverted polymer solar cells. For the inverted polymer solar cells with AZO nanorods array as the electronic transportation layer, by using the nanorod structure, the improvement of carrier collection and carrier extraction capabilities could be expected due to an increase in contact area between the nanorod array and the active layer. For the inverted polymer solar cells with pentacene-doped active layer, the hole-electron mobility in the active layer could be balanced by doping pentacene contents. The active layer with the balanced hole-electron mobility could reduce the carrier recombination in the active layers to enhance the photocurrent of the resulting inverted polymer solar cells. For the inverted polymer solar cells with extra P3HT and PCBM interfacial layers, the extra PCBM and P3HT interfacial layers could respectively improve the electron transport and hole transport. The extra PCBM interfacial layer served another function was that led more P3HT moving to the top side of the absorption layer, which reduced the non-continuous pathways of P3HT. It indicated that the recombination centers could be further reduced in the absorption layer. The extra P3HT interfacial layer could let the hole be more easily transported to the MoO3 hole transport layer. The high performance of the novel P3HT:PCBM inverted polymer solar cells with various structures were obtained.

Bright light-emitting single crystal organic field-effect transistors (FETs) based on highly luminescent oligo(p-phenylenevinylene) (OPV) derivatives are demonstrated. Although OPV single crystal FETs show both p - and n - type FET operation, we found that an increase in the conjugation length of the OPV derivatives from three phenylene rings to five phenylene rings results in an improvement in the electron mobility by an order of magnitude, while retaining the high hole mobility with intense electroluminescence.

The graphene, a single atomic sheet of graphite, has attracted tremendous interest owing to its novel properties including high intrinsic mobility, optical transparency and flexibility. However, for more diverse application of graphene devices, it is essential to tune its transport behavior by shifting Dirac Point (DP) of graphene. So, in the following context, we suggest a method to tune structural and electronic properties of graphene using atomic layer deposition. By atomic layer deposition of zinc oxide (ZnO) on graphene using 4-mercaptophenol as linker, we can fabricate n-doped graphene. Through ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking between chemically inert graphene and 4-mercaptophenol, conformal deposition of ZnO on graphene was enabled. The electron mobility of graphene TFT increased more than 3 times without considerably decreasing the hole mobility, compared to the pristine graphene. Also, it has high air stability. This ZnO doping method by atomic layer deposition can be applicable to large scale array of CVD graphene TFT.
