Abstract
The spectroscopic characterization of localized charges in thin film device s is addressed. We demonstrate their existence and show their particular co ntribution to the operation of sensor devices. Examples in oxidic and polym eric thin films systems are given in which the localized states dominate th e electronic properties. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved .
