  • Publication number: 20170229647
    Abstract: A system and method for fabricating perovskite films for solar cell applications are provided, the system including a housing for use as a vacuum chamber, a substrate stage coupled to the top section of the housing; a first evaporator unit coupled to the bottom section of the housing and configured to generate BX2 (metal halide material) vapor; a second evaporator unit coupled to the housing and configured to generate AX (organic material) vapor; and a flow control unit coupled to the housing for controlling circulation of the AX vapor. The dimensions of the horizontal cross-sectional shape of the first evaporator unit, the dimensions of the horizontal cross-sectional shape of the substrate stage, and the relative position in the horizontal direction between the two horizontal cross-sectional shapes are configured to maximize the overlap between the two horizontal cross-sectional shapes.

  • Publication number: 20170226641
    Abstract: A system and method for fabricating a perovskite film is provided, the system including a substrate stage configured to rotate around its central axis at a rotation speed, a first set of evaporation units, each coupled to the side section or the bottom section of the chamber, a second set of evaporation units coupled to the bottom section, and a shield defining two or more zones having respective horizontal cross-sectional areas, which are open and facing the substrate, designated for the two or more evaporation units in the second set. The resultant perovskite film includes multiple unit layers, wherein each unit layer is formed by one rotation of the substrate stage, and the composition and thickness of the unit layer are controlled by adjusting at least the evaporation rates, the rotation speed and the horizontal cross-sectional areas.

  • Publication number: 20140231765
    Abstract: Organic electronic devices comprising “remotely” doped materials comprising a combination of at least three layers. Such devices can include “remotely p-doped” structures comprising: a channel layer comprising at least one organic semiconductor channel material; a dopant layer, which comprises at least one p-dopant material and optionally at least one organic hole transport material; and a spacer layer disposed between and in electrical contact with both the channel layer and the dopant layer, comprising an organic semiconducting spacer material; or alternatively can include “remotely n-doped” structures comprising a combination of at least three layers: a channel layer comprising at least one organic semiconductor channel material; a dopant layer which comprises at least one organic electron transport material doped with an n-dopant material; and a spacer layer disposed between and in electrical contact with the channel layer and the dopant layer, comprising an organic semiconducting spacer material.
