The ZnSe/Si heterojunction is of specific interest since this structure provides effective solar cell and enables the integration of wide bandgap device in silicon circuits. It is known that the quality of the diode and the current transport mechanisms across the heterojunction may be greatly influenced by the quality of the interface and depends on the crystallinity of the film layer. In this work, n-ZnSe/p-Si (100) heterojunction was fabricated by thermal evaporating ZnSe thin films on p-Si (100) substrates. The current-voltage characteristics of n-ZnSe/p-Si (100) heterojunction were investigated in temperature range 20-300 K. Some important parameters such as barrier height, ideality factor and series resistance values evaluated by using thermionic emission (TE) theory and Cheung’s method at room temperature are n = 2.910,φB0= 0.832 eV and 8.59103Ω, respectively. The temperature dependence of the saturation current and ideality factor are well described by tunneling enhanced recombination at junction interface with activation energy and characteristic energy values about 1.293 eV and E00= 95 meV, respectively. The carrier concentration of ZnSe thin films about 3.16×1013cm-3was deduced from the C-V measurements at room temperature. Admittance spectroscopy was employed for analysis of the defect energy levels situated in depletion region. The results showed that there was a single trap level whose position in the band gap was close to 0.04 eV above valence band. The results of this work may be useful for application such as heterojunction solar cells.

In this study, zinc selenide (ZnSe) thin films were produced on glass substrate by using chemical bath deposition (CBD) method at 80[Formula: see text]C, from aqueous solutions of zinc sulphate and sodium selenosulphide, which were produced using solid selenium as the selenium source. The optical and structural properties of ZnSe thin films were investigated at room-temperature. The pH of the chemical bath, in which ZnSe thin films were immersed, were changed between pH:8–11. Optical properties of the films, including extinction coefficient, refractive index, reflectance, absorbance, transmittance, dielectric constants and optical density values were calculated using absorbance and transmittance measurements determined using a Hach Lange 500 spectrophotometer, in 300–1100 nm wavelength range. Optical bandgap values were obtained from transmittance and absorbance spectra ranged between 2.12 and 2.49 eV. According to XRD results, it was found that the films have polycrystalline structure and they exhibited different film thicknesses depending on phase and pH changes.

Origin of ultraviolet (UV) luminescence from bulk ZnO has been investigated with the help of photoluminescence (PL) measurements. Thin films of ZnO having 52%, 53% and 54% of Zn-contents were prepared by means of molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). We observed a dominant UV line at 3.28 eV and a visible line centered at 2.5 eV in the PL spectrum performed at room temperature. The intensity of UV line has been found to depend upon the Zn percentage in the ZnO layers. Thereby, we correlate the UV line in our samples with the Zn-interstitials-bound exciton (Zni-X) recombination. The results obtained from, x-ray diffraction, the energy dispersive X-ray spectrum (EDAX) and Raman spectroscopy supported the PL results.

We report on a new approach for the fabrication of ferromagnetic molecular thin films. Co-evaporated films of manganese phthalocyanine (MnPc) and tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) have been produced by organic molecular beam deposition (OMBD) on rigid (glass, silicon) and flexible (Kapton) substrates kept at room temperature. The MnPc:TCNQ films are found to be entirely amorphous due to the size mismatch of the molecules. However, by annealing while covering the samples highly crystalline MnPc films in the β-polymorph can be obtained at 60 °C lower than when starting with pure MnPc films. The resulting films exhibit substantial coercivity (13 mT) at 2 K and a Curie temperature of 11.5 K.

Recently, a new two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor SnSe2 monolayer has been grown by molecular beam epitaxy, and weak ferromagnetic behavior above room temperature in Mn-doped SnSe2 thin films was also observed experimentally.
