This is the first text to cover all aspects of solution processed functional oxide thin-films. Chemical Solution Deposition (CSD) comprises all solution based thin- film deposition techniques, which involve chemical reactions of precursors during the formation of the oxide films, i. e. sol-gel type routes, metallo-organic decomposition routes, hybrid routes, etc. While the development of sol-gel type processes for optical coatings on glass by silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide dates from the mid-20th century, the first CSD derived electronic oxide thin films, such as lead zirconate titanate, were prepared in the 1980’s. Since then CSD has emerged as a highly flexible and cost-effective technique for the fabrication of a very wide variety of functional oxide thin films. Application areas include, for example, integrated dielectric capacitors, ferroelectric random access memories, pyroelectric infrared detectors, piezoelectric micro-electromechanical systems, antireflective coatings, optical filters, conducting-, transparent conducting-, and superconducting layers, luminescent coatings, gas sensors, thin film solid-oxide fuel cells, and photoelectrocatalytic solar cells. In the appendix detailed “cooking recipes” for selected material systems are offered.

High-throughput roll-to-roll manufacturing of solution-deposited metal oxide electronics has the potential to enable the widespread and low-cost availability of thin film electronic devices including solar panels, large-area displays and lighting, and flexible medical devices and sensors. However, several challenges have prevented the realization of this potential: (1) The processing speed of solution-deposited oxides is severely limited by the length of the annealing process, usually greater than 20 minutes, which is typically necessary to convert solution-deposited precursor films into metal oxides, (2) the quality of the resultant metal oxide films is limited by the low upper operating temperatures of low-cost, roll-to-roll compatible, plastic substrates, typically much less than 250 °C, and (3) equilibrium heating of devices to these temperatures often results in mechanical failure of the thin films due to the different thermal responses of the films and substrates. In this dissertation, we address these challenges by using light, rather than heat, as a source of energy for curing solution-deposited metal oxide thin films. We use this method to develop solution-deposited oxide thin film transistors (TFTs) on shape memory polymer (SMP) substrates. We demonstrate the direct patterning of Al2O3 and In2O3 precursor films on SMP by exposure to UV light through a shadow mask as a method to overcome the mechanical failure of blanket-coverage films during thermal annealing. The patterned precursors are then converted to oxides for the gate dielectric and the channel semiconductor of the TFTs by thermal annealing without causing damage to the films. The unexpectedly high mobility displayed by these TFTs is studied and the absorption of water from the atmosphere by the gate dielectric is identified as the cause. Finally, we demonstrate the high-speed photonic curing of ZrO2 dielectric films on polyethylene naphthalate substrates. Using intense pulsed light to both heat and cure the oxide film in as little as 100 milliseconds without significantly heating the substrate, we achieve a process for fabricating metal oxide electronic devices that is compatible with roll-to-roll processing speeds exceeding 30 m/min.

Oxides form a broad subject area of research and technology development which encompasses different disciplines such as materials science, solid state chemistry, physics etc. The aim of this book is to demonstrate the interplay of these fields and to provide an introduction to the techniques and methodologies involving film growth, characterization and device processing. The literature in this field is thus fairly scattered in different research journals covering one or the other aspect of the specific activity. This situation calls for a book that will consolidate this information and thus enable a beginner as well as an expert to get an overall perspective of the field, its foundations, and its projected progress.

This book guides beginners in the areas of thin film preparation, characterization, and device making, while providing insight into these areas for experts. As chemically deposited metal oxides are currently gaining attention in development of devices such as solar cells, supercapacitors, batteries, sensors, etc., the book illustrates how the chemical deposition route is emerging as a relatively inexpensive, simple, and convenient solution for large area deposition. The advancement in the nanostructured materials for the development of devices is fully discussed.

Research on electronic devices formed via solution process approaches is a key part of next-generation macro-electronics, such as displays and sensors. Unlike vacuum-based deposition techniques, liquid-phase starting materials support diverse device fabrication routes. Additionally, these techniques can be employed for selective deposition and the creation of various pattern shapes and the low cost of facilities and materials can save expense compared to vacuum infrastructure. Despite the advantages of solution processing, the commercial scaling and applications of this fabrication method are still in their early stages. In particular, the low electrical performance of solution-processed devices is the biggest obstacle to being a broad contributor. In this thesis, I will present the design strategy of high-performance oxide semiconductor thin-film transistors via low-temperature processes, interface engineering and new device structure design to improve mobility and reliability. Additionally, transistor-based biosensor platforms based on high-performance oxide semiconductors will be discussed. Low-dimension semiconductors derived from solution processes have high sensitivity when compared with bulk semiconductors and the uniformity and reproducibility are much better than prevalent nano-scale bioelectronics. The detection of several kinds of molecules will be demonstrated.
