The effect of soft X-ray irradiation to the Schottky diode properties was analyzed in this paper. The built-in voltage, leakage current, and work function of Schottky diode were investigated. The current-voltage characteristics of the Schottky diode are measured at room temperature. After irradiation at 70 keV for 55 seconds the forward current and leakage current are increase slightly. On the other hand, the built-in voltage is decrease from the initial value about 0.12 V. Consequently, this method can cause the Schottky diode has low power consumption. The results show that soft X-ray can improve the characteristics of Schottky diode.

Spectral Ranges

ABSTRACTElectric field – induced effects are studied in thin films of amorphous Si grown by magnetron sputtering performed in continuous and pulse modes. Current-voltage characteristics are measured under the room temperature in different spectral ranges. It is shown that the investigated dependencies are of exponential character in all range of applied bias. Good photosensitivity was revealed by the samples prepared in continuous mode in the near-IR and visible interval. The samples grown by the pulse magnetron technology were shown room-temperature photosensitivity in near-IR range after 2000C hydrogenation.

Output Characteristics

This study investigates the effects of neutron radiation onI-Vcharacteristics (current dependance on voltage) of commercial optoelectronic devices (silicon photodiodes, phototransistors, and solar panels). Current-voltage characteristics of the samples were measured at room temperature before and after irradiation. The diodes were irradiated using Am-Be neutron source with neutron emission of2.7×106 n/s. The results showed a decrease in photocurrent for all samples which could be due to the existence of neutron-induced displacement defects introduced into the semiconductor lattice. The process of annealing has also been observed. A comparative analysis of measurement results has been performed in order to determine the reliability of optoelectronic devices in radiation environments.

Polymer Nanowires

In order to study the electronic properties of conjugated polymer nanowire junctions, we have fabricated two devices consisting of two crossed poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanowires with platinum microleads attached to each end of each nanowire. We find that the junction resistance of the crossed nanowires is much larger than the intrinsic resistance of the individual PEDOT nanowire, and increases with decreasing temperature, which can be described by a thermal fluctuation-induced tunneling conduction model. In addition, the crossed junctions show linear current-voltage characteristics at room temperature.

Modeling of Pd/ZnO Schottky diode has been performed together with a set of simulations to investigate its behavior in current-voltage characteristics. The diode was first fabricated and then the simulations were performed to match the IV curves to investigate the possible defects and their states in the bandgap. The doping concentration measured by capacitance-voltage is 3.4 x 1017 cm-3. The Schottky diode is simulated at room temperature and the effective barrier height is determined from current voltage characteristics both by measurements and simulations and it was found to be 0.68eV. The ideality factor obtained from simulated results is 1.06-2.04 which indicates that the transport mechanism is thermionic. It was found that the recombination current in the depletion region is responsible for deviation of experimental values from the ideal thermionic model deployed by the simulator.

Memory Structures

We present experimental results showing that Cr/p+/V amorphous silicon memory structures at room temperature exhibit step-like current-voltage characteristics associated with discrete, non-random resistance values. The resistance values observed are ∼26kΩ/i where i is an integer or half integer. The low bias current-voltage characteristics prior to the first step suggest that conduction in this regime is governed by tunneling across a region having very small dimensions, of the order of ∼5-7 Å, and having a diameter ∼30-50 Å.

Heteroepitaxial n-ZnO films have been grown on commercial p-type 6H-SiC substrates by plasma-assisted molecular-beam epitaxy, and n-ZnO/p-SiC heterojunction mesa structures have been fabricated and their photoresponse properties have been studied. Current-voltage characteristics of the structures had a very good rectifying diode-like behavior with a leakage current less than 2 x 10-4 A/cm2 at -10 V, a breakdown voltage greater than 20 V, a forward turn on voltage of ∼5 V, and a forward current of ∼2 A/cm2 at 8 V. Photosensitivity of the diodes, when illuminated from ZnO side, was studied at room temperature and photoresponsivity of as high as 0.045 A/W at -7.5 V reverse bias was observed for photon energies higher than 3.0 eV.
