Abstract
Charge carrier type interconversion in undoped semiconducting materials is challenging, as it is primarily directed by intrinsic defects with low formation enthalpies and ionization energy. Therefore, interconversion of p- to n-type materials without any external influence is very difficult, and no synthesis protocol is known to convert it. Overcoming this problem enables the formation of p-n homojunction-based solar cells. In this account, p- and n-type transparent, conducting ultrathin films of CuS have been developed by decreasing the thickness. Furthermore, these transparent p- and n-type conducting materials (TCMs) are used as optoelectronic devices, including light-emitting diodes and p-n homojunction solar cell applications.
期刊介绍：
ACS Applied Electronic Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of electronic materials. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrate knowledge in the areas of materials science, engineering, optics, physics, and chemistry into important applications of electronic materials. Sample research topics that span the journal's scope are inorganic, organic, ionic and polymeric materials with properties that include conducting, semiconducting, superconducting, insulating, dielectric, magnetic, optoelectronic, piezoelectric, ferroelectric and thermoelectric.
