Research Abstract

In this research, we firstly succeeded in development of a-SiC visi-ble light LED.Emitting color is varied from red to green, controling emitting layr deposition condition. As for intrinsic EL device, a-C/a-SiC multi layrs structure lead to blue light emission with high luminance of 35cd/m^2. a-C : H layr deposition conditions and thin-film EL device operating parameters were investigated and basic data were measured.
On the other hand, PCEL which consists of ZnS : (Mn or Tb or Sm) thin-file EL device and n-i-n a-SiC photoconductive device was fabricated. We tried an optical writing with a light-pen. a relation between memory-margin and structural parameters were investigated.
Based on these results, we performed investigations toward optoelectronic integrated circuit combining amorphous semiconductor thin-film light emitter with amorphous photosensor. Consequently, two types of image converters which consist of successively deposited EL(Electro Luminescence) layr and PC(Photo Conductive … More ) layr were developed.
The first device has a SiNx/a-C/a-SiNx intrinsic EL active layrs deposited on ITO-coated glass substrate. n-i-n a-SiC photoconductive layrs are deposited successively on the EL layrs. We investigated this device performance and obtained the technical data.
He-Ne laser(wavelength 633nm) as an input light was converted to blue light output(480nm) at the same area of the input light. This fact suggested that the device is an light up-converter and that infrared-visible image converter is possible if n-i-n a-Si layrs are used as PC layrs.
The other device has p-i-n a-SiC layrs as light emitter. This device is operated in LED mode. We succeeded in fabrication of dc-driven all amorphous image converter.
To add to these investigations, elemental experiments toward a low voltage driven EL device and a high luminance EL device were also performed. As for the former, we used a carrier injection effect at C-Si pn junction. Conquently we succeeded in driving voltage lowering. The latter was concerned with ZnF_2 : Gd ultra-violet emitting EL device and higher luminescence was obtained replacing GdF_3 with GdCl_3. Less
