A straightforward mechanism for the photorecovery behavior of photoresponsive nonvolatile organic field-effect transistor (OFET) memories is proposed by employing a commercially available conjugated polymer, poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) (PFO), monomer fluorene (FO), and nonconjugated poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), as charge storage layers beneath semiconducting pentacene layer. As photoexcitons are generated upon light exposure, respective charges recombine with trapped in electrets neutralize...

Oxygen plasma treatment controls different stoichiometries on the surface of a-HfO_x films, giving a recipe to fabricate MIM and TFT devices at room-temperature.

Over the past decade, SnO has been considered a promising p-type oxide semiconductor. However, achieving high mobility in fabrication of films is still highly dependent on post-annealing procedure, which often used to make SnO, due its metastable nature, readily convertible SnO2 and/or intermediate phases.
