p-Type Metal-Oxide Transistors In article number 2100267 by Sung Haeng Cho and co-workers, a facile route for the fabrication of solution-processed high-performance p-type metal-oxide thin film transistors is developed using potassium-doped SnO (K-SnO). This development of high-performance p-type metal-oxide semiconductors comparable to n-type ones opens a new window for the realization of transparent, flexible, and low-power integrated circuits in large area electronics.

The Potassium‐Assisted P‐Type Characteristics of Tin Oxide in Solution‐Processed High‐Performance Metal Oxide Thin‐Film Transistors

Developing high‐performance p‐type metal‐oxide semiconductors comparable to n‐type ones has opened a new window for the realization of transparent, flexible, and low‐power integrated circuits in large‐area electronics. Herein, the fabrication of solution‐processed p‐type metal‐oxide thin‐film transistors (TFTs) with excellent device performance at low temperatures using a novel material is reported. Potassium (K) content is introduced into the tin oxide precursor solution to stabilize the tin (II) oxide (SnO) phase rather than the tin (IV) oxide (SnO2) phase during thin‐film formation. The optimized K‐doped SnO (K‐SnO) TFTs exhibit outstanding electrical performance, with a maximum Hall mobility of 51 cm2 V−1 s−1 and a field‐effect hole mobility of 2.3 cm2 V−1 s−1. The achievement of the solution‐processed K‐SnO TFTs not only provides a significant step toward the development of complementary metal‐oxide semiconductor circuits, but also represents a feasible approach for low‐cost flexible p‐type metal‐oxide electronics.

EFFECT OF OPACIFIERS ON FUSED VISCOSITY OF FELDSPATHIC GLAZES*

AbstractA study has been made of the fusion characteristics of feldspar, flint, kaolin, and whiting used in glaze compositions with zine oxide and various opacifiers. The fusion characteristics of tin oxide, Opax, Zircopax, and various combinations of opacifiers are given. All heat‐treatments mentioned are at cone 12. Isoviscosity triaxial diagrams show the fields of good glazes in each series, and the rclative effects of composition changes on the physical properties are outlined.
