Inamdar, A.S. (author), Gromala, Przemyslaw Jakub (author), Prisacaru, Alexandru (author), Kabakchiev, Alexander (author), Yang, Yu Hsiang (author), Han, Bongtae (author)Epoxy molding compound (EMC) is widely used for encapsulating automotive electronics. Among all of the components of an electronic package, EMC is most exposed to the atmosphere, and thus undergoes aging. During high-temperature operation, EMC is oxidized, which alters its mechanical properties, and thus can affect the reliability of electronic...book chapter 2022

Strategy to mitigate the dipole interfacial states in (i)a-Si:H/MoOxpassivating contacts solar cellsMazzarella, L. (author), Alcañiz Moya, A. (author), Kawa, Eliora (author), Procel Moya, P.A. (author), Zhao, Y. (author), Han, C. (author), Yang, G. (author), Zeman, M. (author), Isabella, O. (author)Electrical simulations show that the dipole formed at (i)a-Si:H/MoOx interface can explain electrical performance degradation. We experimentally manipulate this interface by a plasma treatment (PT) to mitigate the dipole strength without harming the optical response. The optimal PT + MoOx stack results in strongly improved electrical...conference paper 2020
