Paper Presentation on Transparent Electronics ( Paper Presentation )
Abstract: Transparent electronics is an emerging
science and technology field focused on producing ‘invisible’ electronic circuitry and opto-electronic devices.
Applications include consumer electronics, new energy sources, and transportation; for example, automobile windshields could transmit visual
information to the driver. Glass in almost any setting could also double as an electronic device, possibly improving security systems or offering transparent displays. In a similar vein, windows could be used to produce electrical power. Other civilian and military applications in this research field include realtime wearable displays. As for conventional Si/III–V-based electronics, the basic device structure is based on semiconductor junctions and transistors. However, the device building block materials, the semiconductor, the electric contacts, and the dielectric/passivation layers, must now be transparent in the visible –a true challenge! Therefore, the first scientific goal of this technology must be to discover, understand, and implement transparent high-performance electronic materials. The second goal is their implementation and evaluation in transistor and circuit structures.
