TEXTURED OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICES AND ASSOCIATED METHODS OF MANUFACTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18359795 titled 'TEXTURED OPTOELECTRONIC DEVICES AND ASSOCIATED METHODS OF MANUFACTURE
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes a method of manufacturing textured optoelectronic devices. - The method involves applying a conductive transparent texturing material onto a substrate. - A transparent conductive material is then formed on top of the texturing material. - When the device is heated, the texturing material causes the conductive material to develop multiple raised areas called protuberances. - These protuberances enhance the spreading of current and extraction of light from the device. - The innovation aims to improve the performance of solid state optoelectronic devices.
Original Abstract Submitted
Textured optoelectronic devices and associated methods of manufacture are disclosed herein. In several embodiments, a method of manufacturing a solid state optoelectronic device can include forming a conductive transparent texturing material on a substrate. The method can further include forming a transparent conductive material on the texturing material. Upon heating the device, the texturing material causes the conductive material to grow a plurality of protuberances. The protuberances can improve current spreading and light extraction from the device.
