ABSTRACTTransparent p-n heterojunction diodes are fabricated using p-type CuYO2:Ca and n-type ZnO:Al thin films on a glass substrate coated with indium-tin oxide (ITO). The contact between the n-ZnO:Al / p-CuYO2:Ca heterojunction is found to be rectifying, while the ITO / ZnO:Al contact is ohmic. The typical ratio of forward to reverse current is 15 in the range -3 to 3V. The diode current-voltage characteristics are dominated by the flow of space charge limited current, which is ascribed to the existence of an insulating ZnO interfacial layer. The diode structure has a total thickness of 0.85 μm and an optical transmission of 40%-50% in the visible region.

The photosensitivity of aluminium (Al)/lead sulphide (PbS)/indium tin oxide (ITO) thin layered structure is investigated considering the photon wavelength dependent current-voltage and capacitance-voltage characteristics of the device. The current-voltage characteristics of the test structure are analyzed adopting the back-to-back Schottky barrier diode model. The diode possesses low dark current in contrast to the high value of photocurrents measured under different illumination wavelengths. The change in photocurrents with different illumination wavelengths clearly indicates the change in photo-sensitivity of the device. The capacitance-voltage characteristics of Al/PbS/ITO structure demonstrate a definite improvement of the device capacitance with the higher wavelength exposures. The matter is explained in terms of the additional capacitance owing to the excess carrier generation within the device under illumination. The photosensitivity modulation of the device can be exploited in photo-sensor or photo-detector applications in various electronic devices.

In this paper, a photodetector based on arrayed CdTe microdots was fabricated on Bi coated transparent conducting indium tin oxide (ITO)/glass substrates. Current-voltage characteristics of these photodetectors revealed an ultrahigh sensitivity under stress (in the form of force through press) while compared to normal condition. The devices exhibited excellent photosensing properties with photoinduced current increasing from 20 to 76 μA cm−2 under stress. Furthermore, the photoresponsivity of the devices also increased under stress from 3.2 × 10−4 A/W to 5.5 × 10−3 A/W at a bias of 5 V. The observed characteristics are attributed to the piezopotential induced change in Schottky barrier height, which actually results from the piezo-phototronic effect. The obtained results also demonstrate the feasibility in realization of a facile and promising CdTe microdots-based photodetector via piezo-phototronic effect.

We report the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyst composed of cobalt–calcium phosphate on reduced graphene oxide (CoCaP/rGO). Our catalyst is prepared by the anodic electrolysis of calcium phosphate/rGO mixture loaded on indium-tin-oxide (ITO) in Co2+ aqueous solution. TEM, XPS and XRD experiments confirm that the crystal phase of calcium phosphate (CaP) is transferred into an amorphous phase of calcium oxide with phosphate (5.06 at%) after anodic electrolysis. Additionally, the main cation component of calcium is replaced by cobalt ion. The current–voltage characteristics of CoCaP/rGO showed a shoulder peak at 1.10 V vs. NHE, which originated from Co2+ to higher oxidation states (Co3+ or Co4+) and a strong wave from water oxidation higher +1.16 V vs. NHE at neutral condition (pH 7). CoCaP and CoCaP/rGO showed 4.8 and 10 mA/cm2 at 0.47 V of overpotential, respectively. The enhanced OER catalytic activity of CoCaP/rGO arises from the synergetic interaction between the amorphous phase of CoCaP and electric conducting graphene sheets.

In this study, CuInSe2 (CIS) films (CIS-TFs) and nanorods (CIS-NRs) were successfully deposited on Mo/glass and p+-silicon (p+-Si) using an electrodeposition method. Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) was used as the template when the CIS-NRs were deposited. Pt, indium tin oxide (ITO), and Ag were deposited as the upper electrodes using a sputtering method to form the hetero-junction devices of Pt/CIS-NRs/p+-Si, ITO/CIS-NRs/p+-Si, ITO/CIS-TF/Mo/glass, and Ag/CIS-NRs/p+-Si, respectively. When p+-Si was used as the substrate, Al was deposited on p+-Si to form negative electrodes for the devices of Pt/CIS-NRs/p+-Si, ITO/CIS-NRs/p+-Si, and Ag/CIS-NRs/p+-Si. The current–voltage properties of all the hetero-junction devices were measured and we found that the hetero-junction of ITO/CIS-NRs/p+-Si, ITO/CIS-TF/Mo/glass, and Ag/CIS-NRs/p+-Si devices revealed the properties of Schottky diodes but the hetero-junction device of Pt/CIS-NRs/p+-Si device did not. The reason for the cause of the differences between these hetero-junction devices was investigated for this study.

AbstractThe current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the interfaces between boron-doped hydrogenated amorphous silicon (p-a-Si:H) and transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) such as tin oxide (SnO2) and indium tin oxide (ITO) are experimentally determined. The measurements are performed on especially developed Kelvin cross bridge structures which allow the direct sensing of the contact region. All contacts exhibit for high dopant concentrations an almost linear I-V characteristic. The values of the contact resistance depend on the TCO type and range between 0.5 and 4 Ω· cm2 at 25°C. Gradual reduction of the boron doping level leads to a remarkable increase of the contact resistance and finally to a rectifying behavior. The results indicate that tunnelling across the interface contributes significantly to the current transport. This conclusion is also supported by the behavior of the I-V characteristics at low temperatures. Regarding degradation of the contacts a systematic reduction of the contact resistance is observed after ageing them for 1000 hours at 80°C.
