Amorphous Diamond Solar Cells

Sung J.C., Sung M., Kan M-C, Hsiao T-J., Sung J.C., Sung M., Kinik Company, TW

Silicon based photo voltaic panels are the mainstream of solar cells. However, there are intrinsic limitations of such devices for replacing power plants. The low conversion efficiency (

Amorphous Diamond as a Thermionic Material

Sung J.C., Sung M., Kan M-C, Hsiao T-J., Chen Y-T, Sung J.C., Sung M., Kinik Company, TW

Amorphous diamond is essentially a chaotic carbon mixture with distorted sp2 and sp3 bonds. As such it possesses both metallic character of conductive graphite and semiconductor character of insulating diamond. Moreover, as each carbon atom [...]

Cold Cathode Fluorescence Light with Amorphous Diamond Coated Electrodes

Sung J.C., Kan M-C, Kinik Company, TW

Amorphous diamond is the only material that can emit electrons in vacuum when applied with an electrical field of only a few volts per micron and such current can increase hundreds or millions times when [...]
