However, it is a challenge to decouple the electrical and optical properties of a material, as the property of conductivity is strongly coupled to the imaginary part of the refractive index. An ideal TE has high transparency in combination with very low electrical resistivity. The main objective of the thesis was to develop TEs which can replace expensive, scarce and fragile Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), the most widely used TE material in the industry today.  The thesis contains original work on ultrathin metal film (UTMF)-based TEs, which are essential elements in a wide range of optoelectronics, consumer electronics and energy devices.  It presents new designs and fabrication methods and demonstrates the efficient use of UTMF-TEs in organic light emitting diodes and solar cells, achieving similar levels of efficiency to that of state-of-the-art ITO. 410 0$aSpringer theses. 606 $aOptoelectronics industry 606 $aElectrodes 615 0$aOptoelectronics industry. 615 0$aElectrodes. 676 $a621.381045 700 $aGhosh$b Dhriti Sundar$0916027 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437983603321 996 $aUltrathin Metal Transparent Electrodes for the Optoelectronics Industry$92053518 997 $aUNINA
