Item type:Item, Phosphorous Diffuser Diverged Blue Laser Diode for Indoor Lighting and Communication(2015-12-21) ;Chi, Yu-Chieh ;Hsieh, Dan-Hua ;Lin, Chung-Yu ;Chen, Hsiang-YuHuang, Chia-YenAn advanced light-fidelity (Li-Fi) system based on the blue Gallium nitride (GaN) laser diode (LD) with a compact white-light phosphorous diffuser is demonstrated for fusing the indoor whitelighting and visible light communication (VLC). The phosphorous diffuser adhered blue GaN LD broadens luminescent spectrum and diverges beam spot to provide ample functionality including the completeness of Li-Fi feature and the quality of white-lighting. The phosphorous diffuser diverged white-light spot covers a radiant angle up to 120 degrees with CIE coordinates of (0.34, 0.37). On the other hand, the degradation on throughput frequency response of the blue LD is mainly attributed to the selffeedback caused by the reflection from the phosphor-air interface. It represents the current state-ofthe- art performance on carrying 5.2-Gbit/s orthogonal frequency-division multiplexed 16-quadratureamplitude modulation (16-QAM OFDM) data with a bit error rate (BER) of 3.1 x 10(-3) over a 60-cm freespace link. This work aims to explore the plausibility of the phosphorous diffuser diverged blue GaN LD for future hybrid white-lighting and VLC systems.Item type:Item, 4-Gbit/s visible light communication link based on 16-QAM OFDM transmission over remote phosphor-film converted white light by using blue laser diode(2015-12-28) ;Retamal, Jose Ramon Duran ;Oubei, Hassan Makine ;Janjua, Bilal ;Chi, Yu-ChiehWang, Huai-YungVisible Light Communication (VLC) as a new technology for ultrahigh-speed communication is still limited when using slow modulation light-emitting diode (LED). Alternatively, we present a 4-Gbit/s VLC system using coherent blue-laser diode (LD) via 16-quadrature amplitude modulation orthogonal frequency division multiplexing. By changing the composition and the optical-configuration of a remote phosphor-film the generated white light is tuned from cool day to neutral, and the bit error rate is optimized from 1.9 x 10(-2) to 2.8 x 10(-5) in a blue filter-free link due to enhanced blue light transmission in forward direction. Briefly, blue-LD is an alternative to LED for generating white light and boosting the data rate of VLC. (C) 2015 Optical Society of AmericaItem type:Item, Breakthrough to Non-Vacuum Deposition of Single-Crystal, Ultra-Thin, Homogeneous Nanoparticle Layers: A Better Alternative to Chemical Bath Deposition and Atomic Layer Deposition(2017-04-01) ;Liao, Yu-Kuang ;Liu, Yung-Tsung ;Hsieh, Dan-Hua ;Shen, Tien-LinHsieh, Ming-YangMost thin-film techniques require a multiple vacuum process, and cannot produce high-coverage continuous thin filmswith the thickness of a fewnanometers on rough surfaces. We present a new "paradigm shift" non-vacuum process to deposit high-quality, ultra-thin, single-crystal layers of coalesced sulfide nanoparticles (NPs) with controllable thickness down to a few nanometers, based on thermal decomposition. This provides high-coverage, homogeneous thickness, and large-area deposition over a rough surface, with little material loss or liquid chemical waste, and deposition rates of 10 nm/min. This technique can potentially replace conventional thin-film deposition methods, such as atomic layer deposition (ALD) and chemical bath deposition (CBD) as used by the Cu(In, Ga) Se2 (CIGS) thin-film solar cell industry for decades. We demonstrate 32% improvement of CIGS thin-film solar cell efficiency in comparison to reference devices prepared by conventional CBD deposition method by depositing the ZnS NPs buffer layer using the new process. The new ZnS NPs layer allows reduction of an intrinsic ZnO layer, which can lead to severe shunt leakage in case of a CBD buffer layer. This leads to a 65% relative efficiency increase.Item type:Item, An Investigation of Carbon-Doping-Induced Current Collapse in GaN-on-Si High Electron Mobility Transistors(2016-06-01) ;Tzou, An-Jye ;Hsieh, Dan-Hua ;Chen, Szu-Hung ;Liao, Yu-KuangLi, Zhen-YuThis paper reports the successful fabrication of a GaN-on-Si high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) with a 1702 V breakdown voltage (BV) and low current collapse. The strain and threading dislocation density were well-controlled by 100 pairs of AlN/GaN superlattice buffer layers. Relative to the carbon-doped GaN spacer layer, we grew the AlGaN back barrier layer at a high temperature, resulting in a low carbon-doping concentration. The high-bandgap AlGaN provided an effective barrier for blocking leakage from the channel to substrate, leading to a BV comparable to the ordinary carbon-doped GaN HEMTs. In addition, the AlGaN back barrier showed a low dispersion of transiently pulsed I-D under substrate bias, implying that the buffer traps were effectively suppressed. Therefore, we obtained a low-dynamic on-resistance with this AlGaN back barrier. These two approaches of high BV with low current collapse improved the device performance, yielding a device that is reliable in power device applications.Item type:Item, 450-nm GaN laser diode enables high-speed visible light communication with 9-Gbps QAM-OFDM(2015-05-18) ;Chi, Yu-Chieh ;Hsieh, Dan-Hua ;Tsai, Cheng-Ting ;Chen, Hsiang-YuKuo, Hao-ChungA TO-38-can packaged Gallium nitride (GaN) blue laser diode (LD) based free-space visible light communication (VLC) with 64-quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) and 32-subcarrier orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission at 9 Gbps is preliminarily demonstrated over a 5-m free-space link. The 3-dB analog modulation bandwidth of the TO-38-can packaged GaN blue LD biased at 65 mA and controlled at 25 degrees C is only 900 MHz, which can be extended to 1.5 GHz for OFDM encoding after throughput intensity optimization. When delivering the 4-Gbps 16-QAM OFDM data within 1-GHz bandwidth, the error vector magnitude (EVM), signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and bit-error-rate (BER) of the received data are observed as 8.4%, 22.4 dB and 3.5 x 10(-8), respectively. By increasing the encoded bandwidth to 1.5 GHz, the TO-38-can packaged GaN blue LD enlarges its transmission capacity to 6 Gbps but degrades its transmitted BER to 1.7 x 10(-3). The same transmission capacity of 6 Gbps can also be achieved with a BER of 1 x 10(-6) by encoding 64-QAM OFDM data within 1-GHz bandwidth. Using the 1.5-GHz full bandwidth of the TO-38-can packaged GaN blue LD provides the 64-QAM OFDM transmission up to 9 Gbps, which successfully delivers data with an EVM of 5.1%, an SNR of 22 dB and a BER of 3.6 x 10(-3) passed the forward error correction (FEC) criterion. (C) 2015 Optical Society of AmericaItem type:Item, Observation of unusual optical transitions in thin-film Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 solar cells(2012-11-05) ;Liao, Yu-Kuang ;Kuo, Shou-Yi ;Lin, Woei-Tyng ;Lai, Fang-IHsieh, Dan-HuaIn this paper, we examine photoluminescence spectra of Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 (CIGS) via temperature-dependent and power-dependent photoluminescence (PL). Donor-acceptor pair (DAP) transition, near-bandedge transition were identified by their activation energies. S-shaped displacement of peak position was observed and was attributed to carrier confinement caused by potential fluctuation. This coincides well with the obtained activation energy at low temperature. We also present a model for transition from V-Se to V-In and to V-Cu which illustrates competing mechanisms between DAPs recombinations. (C) 2012 Optical Society of AmericaItem type:Item, Growth and characterization of Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 thin films by nanosecond and femtosecond pulsed laser deposition(2014-06-02) ;Chen, Shih-Chen ;Hsieh, Dan-Hua ;Jiang, Hsin ;Liao, Yu-KuangLai, Fang-IIn this work, CuIn1-xGaxSe2 (CIGS) thin films were prepared by nanosecond (ns)- and femtosecond (fs)-pulsed laser deposition (PLD) processes. Different film growth mechanisms were discussed in perspective of the laser-produced plasmas and crystal structures. The fs-PLD has successfully improved the inherent flaws, Cu-2 (-) Se-x, and air voids ubiquitously observed in ns-PLD-derived CIGS thin films. Moreover, the prominent antireflection and excellent crystalline structures were obtained in the fs-PLD-derived CIGS thin films. The absorption spectra suggest the divergence in energy levels of radiative defects brought by the inhomogeneous distribution of elements in the fs-PLD CIGS, which has also been supported by comparing photoluminescence (PL) spectra of ns- and fs-PLD CIGS thin films at 15 K. Finally, the superior carrier transport properties in fs-PLD CIGS were confirmed by fs pump-probe spectroscopy and four-probe measurements. The present results indicate a promising way for preparing high-quality CIGS thin films via fs-PLD.Item type:Item, Device Modeling of the Performance of Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 Solar Cells with V-Shaped Bandgap Profiles(2014) ;Kuo, Shou-Yi ;Hsieh, Ming-Yang ;Hsieh, Dan-Hua ;Kuo, Hao-ChungChen, Chyong-HuaThe effect of Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 (CIGS) with V-shaped bandgap on device performance is investigated in detail. A series of Ga/(In+Ga) ratio are set to study the influence of V-shaped bandgap profile on the electricity of CIGS thin film solar cells. The modeling of device current density-voltage (J-V) curve and bandgap grading profile corresponded well to measurement results. Detailed characteristic and modeling results show that an increased gradient of bandgap from valley to the buffer layer CdS will result in a barrier and lead to an enhanced recombination in the valley. This phenomenon can be modified by the back electric field resulting from a gradient bandgap from valley (bandgap minimum) to the Mo back contact. These results indicate CIGS-based solar cells can achieve higher performance by optimizing the V-shaped bandgap profile.Item type:Item, Non-antireflective Scheme for Efficiency Enhancement of Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 Nanotip Array Solar Cells(2013-08-01) ;Liao, Yu-Kuang ;Wang, Yi-Chung ;Yen, Yu-Ting ;Chen, Chia-HsiangHsieh, Dan-HuaWe present systematic works in characterization of CIGS nanotip arrays (CIGS NTRs). CIGS NTRs are obtained by a one-step ion-milling process by a direct-sputtering process of CIGS thin films (CIGS TF) without a postselenization process. At the surface of CIGS NTRs, a region extending to 100 nm in depth with a lower copper concentration compared to that of CIGS TF has been discovered. After KCN washing, removal of secondary phases can be achieved and a layer with abundant copper vacancy (V-Cu) was left. Such compositional changes can be a benefit for a CIGS solar cell by promoting formation of Cd-occupied Cu sites (Cd-Cu) at the CdS/CIGS interface and creates a type-inversion layer to enhance interface passivation and carrier extraction. The raised V-Cu concentration and enhanced Cd diffusion in CIGS NTRs have been verified by energy dispersive spectrometry. Strengthened adhesion of Al:ZnO (AZO) thin film on CIGS NTRs capped with CdS has also been observed in SEM images and can explain the suppressed series resistance of the device with CIGS NTRs. Those improvements in electrical characteristics are the main factors for efficiency enhancement rather than antireflection.
