`
`

`

`1. My name is Jacob Robert Munford. I am over the age of 18, have personal
`
`knowledge of the facts set forth herein, and am competent to testify to the
`
`same.
`
`2. I earned a Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) from the
`
`University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 2009. I have over ten years of
`
`experience in the library/information science field. Beginning in 2004, I
`
`have served in various positions in the public library sector including
`
`Assistant Librarian, Youth Services Librarian and Library Director. I have
`
`attached my Curriculum Vitae as Appendix A.
`
`
`
`
`
`3. During my career in the library profession, I have been responsible for
`
`materials acquisition for multiple libraries. In that position, I have cataloged,
`
`purchased and processed incoming library works. That includes purchasing
`
`materials directly from vendors, recording publishing data from the material
`
`in question, creating detailed material records for library catalogs and
`
`physically preparing that material for circulation. In addition to my
`
`experience in acquisitions, I was also responsible for analyzing large
`
`collections of library materials, tailoring library records for optimal catalog
`
`2
`
`

`

`search performance and creating lending agreements between libraries
`
`during my time as a Library Director.
`
`
`
`4. I am fully familiar with the catalog record creation process in the library
`
`sector. In preparing a material for public availability, a library catalog record
`
`describing that material would be created. These records are typically
`
`written in Machine Readable Catalog (herein referred to as MARC) code
`
`and contain information such as a physical description of the material,
`
`metadata from the material’s publisher and date of library acquisition. In
`
`particular, the 008 field of the MARC record is reserved for denoting the
`
`creation of the library record itself. As this typically occurs during the
`
`process of preparing materials for public access, it is my experience that an
`
`item’s MARC record accurately indicates the date of an item’s public
`
`availability.
`
`
`5. I have reviewed Exhibit SEL2004, a book by John F. Wager entitled
`
`Transparent Electronics published by Springer in 2008.
`
`
`
`6. Attached hereto as Appendix WA01 is a true and correct copy of scans of

`
`

`

`Electronics from the University of Pittsburgh. I secured these scans from the
`
`library’s onsite holdings.
`

`
`that Exhibit SEL2004 is a true and correct copy of Transparent Electronics
`
`by John F. Wager.
`
`
`
`8. Attached hereto as Appendix WA02 is a true and correct copy of the MARC

`
`2 1 Introduction
`
`ent electronics ‘killer apps’ are admittedly either not yet well-defined or
`are presently unrealizable due to current limitations in transparent electron-
`ics or in a requisite auxiliary technology. However, this topical ordering
`inversion is meant to be intentionally provocative. Since transparentelec-
`tronics is a nascent technology, we believe that its development will be
`most rapidly and efficiently accomplished if it
`is strongly application-
`driven, and if it is undertaken in a parallel fashion in which materials, de-
`vices, circuits, and system development are pursued concurrently. Hope-
`fully, such a product-driven concurrent developmentstrategy will lead to
`rapid technology assessment, the identification of new and most-likely un-
`expected applications, and an expeditious commercial deploymentof this
`technology.
`
`1.2 Pre-history
`
`Two primary technologies which preceded and underlie transparent elec-
`tronics are briefly overviewed. These topics are transparent conductive
`oxides (TCOs)and thin-film transistors (TFTs).
`
`1.2.1 Transparent conducting oxides (TCOs)
`
`TCOsconstitute an unusual class of materials possessing two physical
`properties - high optical transparency and high electrical conductivity -
`that are generally considered to be mutually exclusive (Hartnagel etal.
`1995). This peculiar combination of physical properties is only achievable
`if a material has a sufficiently large energy band gap so that it is non-
`absorbing ortransparent to visible light, i.e., > ~3.1 eV, and also possesses
`a high enough concentration of electrical carriers, i.e., an electron or hole
`concentration > ~10'? cm”, with a sufficiently large mobility, > ~1 cm? V"
`'s' that the material can be considered to be a ‘good’ conductorof elec-
`tricity.
`
`The three most common TCOsare indium oxide In2O3;, tin oxide SnO;,
`and zinc oxide ZnO, the basic electrical properties of which are summa-
`rized in Table 1.1. All three of these materials have band gaps abovethat
`required for transparencyacross the full visible spectrum.
`
`Note that although the TCOs listed in Table 1.1 are considered to be
`‘good’ conductors from the perspective of a semiconductor, they are actu-
`ally very poor conductors compared to metals. For example, the conduc-

`
`tivities of tungsten W, aluminum Al, and copper Cu, are approximately
`100,000, 350,000, and 600,000 S cm", indicating that the best In.O; con-
`ductivity (for indium tin oxide or ITO) is about a factor of 10 to 60 lower
`than that of a typical integrated circuit contact metal. The low conduc-
`tance of TCOs compared to metals has important consequences for both
`TCO andtransparent electronics applications, some of which are explored
`in this book. The theoretical absolute limit of the conductivity for a TCO
`has been estimated to be 25,000 S cm" (Bellingham 1992).

`
`Returning to Table 1.1, notice thatall three of the TCOs includedin this
`table are n-type, i.e., conductivity is a consequence of electron transport,
`and that the electron carrier concentration is strongly degenerate,1.e., the
`electron density exceeds that of the conduction effective band density of
`states by an appreciable amount (Pierret 1996; Sze and Ng 2007). All of
`the well-known and commercially relevant TCOsare n-type. p-type TCOs
`are a relatively new phenomenon andtheir conductivity performance is
`quite poor comparedto that of n-type TCOs. To a large extent, the poor
`conductivity of p-type TCOsis due to the very low mobility of these mate-
`rials, typically less than ~1 cm? V"'s', compared to mobilities in the range
`of ~10-40 cm? V's"! for n-type TCOs.
`
`The n-type mobilities indicated in Table 1.1 are quite small compared to
`those representative single crystal silicon materials and devices, which
`range from ~250-1,500 cm? V's! However,this mobility comparison be-
`tween TCOsandsingle crystal silicon is a bit misleading since single crys-
`tal silicon mobility is not usually specified at doping concentrations as
`large as those typical of TCOs.
`In fact,
`it is reported that single mn
`silicon mobility is independent of doping concentration above ~10'? cm*
`ii an electron mobility of~90 cm? V's"! and a hole mobility of~50 cm?
`“'s' (Baliga 1995). A low mobility at high carrier concentrationsis, to a
`faeee extent, a consequence of intense ionized impurity scattering associ-
`
`ated with high doping concentrations (Hartnagel et al.1995).

`520 __ Ja "Transparent electronics is an emerging technology that employs wide band-gap semiconductors for the
`realization of invisible circuits. This monograph providesthe first roadmap for transparent electronics, identifying
`wherethe field is, where it is going, and what needs to happen to moveit forward. Although the central focus of
`this monograph involves transparent electronics, many of the materials, devices, circuits, and process-integration
`strategies discussed herein will be of great interest to researchers working in other emerging fields of
`optoelectronics and electronics involving printing, large areas, low cost, flexibility, wearability, and fashion and
`design." - Back cover.
