Identification and design principles of low hole effective mass p-type transparent conducting oxides
Open accessAbstract
The development of high performance transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) is critical to many technologies from transparent electronics to solar cells. While n-type TCOs are present in many devices, current p-type TCOs are not largely commercialized as they exhibit much lower carrier mobilities, due to the large hole effective masses of most oxides. Here, we conduct a high-throughput computational search on thousands of binary and ternary oxides and identify several highly promising compounds displaying exceptionally low hole effective masses (up to an order of magnitude lower than state of the art p-type TCOs) as well as wide band gaps. In addition to the discovery of specific compounds, the chemical rationalization of our findings opens new directions, beyond current Cu-based chemistries, for the design and development of future p-type TCOs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
