Such phenomena are important in heterojunction devices. When applied to SEM data taken on CuxS/CdS solar cells as a function of air heat treatment time at 120°C, this analysis showed dramatic changes occurring in the junction collection efficiency but no significant changes in diffusion lengths or surface recombination velocity. This indicates that SCR phenomena play a major role in the evolution of these devices' performance with heating.","PeriodicalId":164556,"journal":{"name":"1978 International Electron Devices Meeting","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127836377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gain flatness over the \"hot\" bandwidth must also be assured along with electronic stability. Design concepts capable of meeting these needs, and supported by analytical and cold-test results, are introduced. A coupled-cavity structure meeting the cold-bandwidth and dispersion requirements was developed with little difficulty. Within the band, a 2π-point backward-waye instability requires suppression by nonreciprocal means. Ferrimagnetic spheres internal to the circuit can promote stability through a combination of backward-wave absorption and diminished backward-wave Pierce impedance near the selected frequency. Alternatively, novel external circuitry directionally coupled to the side of the TWT can create an effective \"sever\" affecting only backward waves at the selected frequency.","PeriodicalId":164556,"journal":{"name":"1978 International Electron Devices Meeting","volume":"4 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127986553","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
