“…Among metallic materials, stainless steel and molybdenum foils have been utilized as substrates in the fabrication of thin-film transistors (Theiss and Wagner, 1996;Wu et al, 1997;Howell et al, 2000;Wu et al, 2002;Park et al, 2003) and solar cells (Yang et al, 2003). A number of plastic materials (organic polymers) also have been tested successfully in a variety of thin-film applications (Constant et al, 1994;Young et al, 1997;Burns et al, 1997;Burrows et al, 1997;Gleskova et al, 1998;Parsons et al, 1998;Lueder et al, 1998;Thomasson et al, 1998;Sandoe, 1998;Carey et al, 2000;Sazonov et al, 2000;Boucinha et al, 2000;Kane et al, 2001;Ichikawa et al, 2001;Hsu et al, 2002a;Brida et al, 2002;Takano et al, 2003;Cheng et al, 2004;Gelinck et al, 2004;Shahrjerdi et al, 2004;Nomura et al, 2004;Monacelli et al, 2004;Choi et al, 2004).…”
