The transient photovoltaic (PV) characteristic of HgCdTe PV array is studied using an ultrafast laser. The photoresponse shows an apparent negative valley first, then it evolves into a positive peak. By employing a combined theoretical model ofpnjunction and Schottky potential, this photo-response polarity changing curves can be interpreted well. An obvious decreasing of ratio of negative valley to positive peak can be realized by limiting the illumination area of the array electrode. This shows that the photoelectric effect of Schottky barrier at metal-semiconductor (M/S) interface is suppressed, which will verify the correctness of the model. The characteristic parameters of transient photo-response induced fromp-njunction and Schottky potential are extracted by fitting the response curve utilizing this model. It shows that the negative PV response induced by the Schottky barrier decreases the positive photovoltage generated by thepnjunction.

ABSTRACTThe electrical properties of a Au/Cr/(Au)/Zn/Au (50/25/(50)/100/2 nm) multilayer metallization to n- and p-type InP have been investigated. The results consistently show that it is possible to modulate the effective Schottky barrier height of the metal-semiconductor contact over a large range of values extending from ∼0 eV for contacts to p-type InP to values close to the bandgap of the InP (∼1.3 eV) for contacts to n-type InP. The limiting factor in the developement of the highest quality metal-semiconductor diodes to n-type InP with very high Schottky barrier heights is found to be diffusion of Au elements at high annealing temperatures above 500°C, as determined from I-V, C-V and DLTS plots.

В данной работе исследовано влияние проводимости полупроводника на Барьер Шотки в контакте металл полупроводник. В качестве объектов исследования выбраны контакты с алюминием следующих полупроводников: арсенида индия(InAs), арсенида галлия (GaAs)антимонида индия(InSb) и сульфида кадмия(CdS). Выбор этих кристаллов связан с тем, что ширина запрещенной зоны этих полупроводников возрастает от Еg = 0,18 эВ у арсенида индия до Еg = 2,53 эВ у сульфида кадмия, что соответствует поставленной задаче в данной работе. In this paper, the influence of the conductivity of a semiconductor on the Schottky Barrier in the metal-semiconductor contact is investigated. Contacts with aluminum of the following semiconductors were selected as objects of research: indium arsenide(InAs), gallium arsenide (GaAs), indium antimonide(InSb), and cadmium sulfide(CDs). The choice of these crystals is due to the fact that the band gap of these semiconductors increases from U = 0.18 eV for indium arsenide to U =eV for cadmium sulfide, which corresponds to the task in this paper.

<div><div><div><p>One of the fascinating properties of metal-semiconductor Schottky-barriers, which has been observed for some material combinations, is memristive behavior. Memristors are smart, since they can reversibly switch between a low resistance state and a high resistance state. The devices offer a great potential for advanced computing and data storage, including neuromorphic networks and resistive random-access memory. However, as for many other cases, the presence of a real interface (metal - metal oxide) has numerous disadvantages. The realization of interface-free, respectively Schottky-barrier free memristors is highly desirable. The aim of the current paper is the generation of nanowire arrays with each nanorod possessing the same crystal phase (Rutile) and segments only differing in composition. The electric conductivity is realized by segments made of highly-doped antimony tin oxide (ATO) transitioning into pure tin oxide (TO). Complex nanoarchitectures are presented, which include ATO-TO, ATO-TO-ATO nanowires either with a stepwise distribution of antimony or as a graded functional material. The electrical characterization of the materials reveals that the introduction of memristive properties in such structures is possible. The special features observed in voltage-current (IV) curves are correlated to the behavior of mobile oxygen vacancies (VO..) at different values of applied electrical potential.</p></div></div></div>
