• states of ITO–CNT lying lower than those of ITO. A similar kind of band alignment is almost achieved in the standard cell architecture by the insertion of a layer of poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene):(polystyrene sulfonic acid) (PEDOT:PSS). This polymer is used to improve the contact (and reduce the

• (SK) growth, depending on the precise control of the Sb/Ga V/III flux ratio, coverage, and growth temperature. Furthermore these parameters influence dot shape, size and density. The staggered (type-II) band alignment with a large valence band offset provides hole confinement. The electronic states
