Abstract

This chapter describes new transparent and electro-conductive materials or p-type transparent oxides. Deep ultraviolet-transparent Ga2O3, electron-doped 12CaO⋅7Al2O3, and transparent p-type oxides are taken up. The main application expected for theses materials are not for transparent contact but for newly emerging areas such as transparent electronics or photonics.
