ABSTRACT

The insulator/semiconductor interface structure is the key to electric device performance, and much interest has been focused on understanding the origin of interfacial defects. However, with conventional techniques, it is difficult to analyze the interfacial atomic structure buried in the insulating film. Here, we reveal the atomic structure at the interface between an amorphous aluminum oxide and diamond using a developed electron energy analyzer for photoelectron holography. We find that the three-dimensional atomic structure of a C-O-Al-O-C bridge between two dimer rows of the hydrogen-terminated diamond surface. Our results demonstrate that photoelectron holography can be used to reveal the three-dimensional atomic structure of the interface between a crystal and an amorphous film. We also find that the photoelectron intensity originating from the C-O bonds is strongly related to the interfacial defect density. We anticipate significant progress in the study of amorphous/crystalline interfaces based on their three-dimensional atomic structures analysis.

ABSTRACT

The emphasis on ubiquitous technology means that future technological applications will depend heavily on transparent conducting materials. To facilitate truly ubiquitous applications, transparent conductors should be fabricated at low temperatures (<50 °C). Here, we demonstrate an instantaneous (<100 ns) and low-temperature (<45 °C at the substrate) method, excimer laser irradiation, for the transformation of an a-InGaZnO semiconductor into a transparent highly conductive oxide with performance rivaling traditional and emerging transparent conductors. Our analysis shows that the instantaneous and substantial conductivity enhancement is due to the generation of a large amount of oxygen vacancies in a-InGaZnO after irradiation. The method's combination of low temperature, extremely rapid process, and applicability to other materials will create a new class of transparent conductors for the high-throughput roll-to-roll fabrication of future flexible devices.

ABSTRACT

We developed a concise protocol for the synthesis of ellipticine quinone from the appropriate 3-iodoindole-2-carbaldehydes in four steps. The key step is the construction of carbazole-1,4-quinone through tandem Ring-Closing Metathesis (RCM) and dehydrogenation under oxygen atmosphere. Therefore, the ellipticine quinone analogs possessing substitution at the 8- and/or 9-positions were synthesized using this method. In total, 14 compounds were evaluated for antiproliferative activity against HCT-116 and HL-60 cell lines; 9-nitroellipticine quinone was found to have superior activity compared to calothrixin B.

ABSTRACT

The use of indium-gallium-zinc oxide (IGZO) has paved the way for high-resolution uniform displays or integrated circuits with transparent and flexible devices. However, achieving highly reliable devices that use IGZO for low-temperature processes remains a technological challenge. We propose the use of IGZO thin-film transistors (TFTs) with an ionic-liquid gate dielectric in order to achieve high-density carrier-accumulated IGZO TFTs with high reliability, and we discuss a distinctive mechanism for the degradation of this organic-inorganic hybrid device under long-term electrical stress. Our results demonstrated that an ionic liquid or gel gate dielectric provides highly reliable and low-voltage operation with IGZO TFTs. Furthermore, high-density carrier accumulation helps improve the TFT characteristics and reliability, and it is highly relevant to the electronic phase control of oxide materials and the degradation mechanism for organic-inorganic hybrid devices.
