Characterization of Piezoelectric Microgenerator with Nanobranched ZnO Grown on a Polymer Coated Flexible Substrate
Published in Applied Sciences
In this paper, results from the fabrication and study of a piezoelectric microgenerator using nanobranched zinc oxide (ZnO) film grown on poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiphene) doped with a sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS)-coated flexible substrate are presented. The aim of the study is to extract information about the electrical behavior of the harvester at differe...
Piezoelectric energy harvesting device with nanobranched ZnO on Polymer/Metal/Polymer coated flexible substrate
Published in 2017 15th International Conference on Electrical Machines, Drives and Power Systems (ELMA)
This work reports about the fabrication of piezoelectric energy harvesting with ZnO nanostructure grown on polymeric based electrode. The piezoelectric film exhibits nanobranched morphology, which provide favorable conditions for dipoles orientation and thus the device is characterized with relatively low dielectric losses in the range of 0.4-3.9×1...
Flexible optoelectronic device with polymer based electrode on hybrimer substrate — Impact of the bending on the interfa...
Published in 2017 40th International Spring Seminar on Electronics Technology (ISSE)
In this study, novel flexible organic light-emitting diode structure (f-OLED) hybrimer/polymer/metal/polymer/emissive layer/metal was proposed. We studied the effect of the mechanical bending on its electro-optical behavior. The device contains polymeric based anode PEDOT:PSS/Au/PEDOT:PSS, where the conductive polymer was spray deposited on prelimi...

ELECTRICAL PARAMETERS EXTRACTION FOR PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF PEDOT:PSS BASED FLEXIBLE ORGANIC OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICES
Published in 11th International Conference on “Technical and Physical Problems of Electrical Engineering”At: Bucharest, Romania
Electrical behavior of PEDOT:PSS films was investigated for potential application as anode in ITO-free flexible organic optoelectronic devices. Current-voltage, capacitance-voltage, capacitance-frequency and contact resistance-bending cycles characteristics were measured at different electrodes architecture, as well as with and without post-deposit...
