Abstract

See full text

Methods of fabricating optoelectronic devices, such as photovoltaic cells and light-emitting devices. In one embodiment, such a method includes providing a substrate, applying a monolayer of semiconductor particles to the substrate, and encasing the monolayer with one or more coatings so as to form an encased-particle layer. At some point during the method, the substrate is removed so as to expose the reverse side of the encased-particle layer and further processing is performed on the reverse side. When a device made using such a method has been completed and installed into an electrical circuit the semiconductor particles actively participate in the photoelectric effect or generation of light, depending on the type of device.
