Abstract Zinc sulfide (ZnS) films were successfully grown by using mist chemical vapor deposition (mist‐CVD) with fine‐channel susceptor made of quartz. For the investigation growth dynamics, two types generators and susceptors prepared distribu¬tion profiles film thickness examined. Thermal efficiency depends on heat¬penetration line‐velocity mists, which are influenced gap‐height susceptors. Using larger size mists requires higher thermal in to obtain a flat distribution. This result...

Pentacene thin-film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated with ultraviolet-light (UV)-cured polysilsesquioxane (PSQ) gate dielectric layers using cross-linker molecules or without ester groups. To polymerize PSQ groups, thiol-ene reaction was adopted.
