ABSTRACTPhase composition and electrical properties of Ag(Tl)SbS amorphous films obtained by pulse laser deposition technology are investigated. The films deposited on crystalline NaCl and Kcl substrates are amorphous with crystalline phase inclusions. Room-temperature current voltage characteristics showed a good electro-sensitivity of the films under applied bias up to 10 V and a space-charge-limited current was registered as a principal component of the charge carrier transport.

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.

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.

The Difference

Two types of p–n junction were fabricated by depositing underdoped La 1.9 Sr 0.1 CuO 4 film and overdoped La 1.8 Sr 0.2 CuO 4 film on n -type 0.5 wt.% Nb -doped SrTiO 3 (NSTO) substrates using pulsed laser deposition technique (PLD), respectively. Current–voltage (I–V) characteristics of the La 2-x Sr x CuO 4/NSTO heterojunction were measured in the temperature range from 5 K to 300 K. All I–V curves show a fine rectifying property and a visible reduction of the diffusion potential (Vd) is observed, but the behaviors of Vd are vastly different for the underdoped and overdoped regimes at temperatures below Tc. Analysis results show that the characteristics of the heterojunction are possibly affected not only by the superconducting gap of LSCO at Tc, but also by the depletion layer in the interface of LSCO/NSTO junction. The variation of the depletion layer is possibly different under the same applied bias voltages for the underdoped La 1.9 Sr 0.1 CuO 4/NSTO junction and overdoped La 1.8 Sr 0.2 CuO 4/NSTO junction due to the difference of carrier density at La 1.9 Sr 0.1 CuO 4 and La 1.8 Sr 0.2 CuO 4.

Metastable Defect

AbstractMetastabilities in the electrical characteristics of CIGS devices are commonly observed phenomena originating from persistent changes of shallow and deep levels distributions within the absorber. We examine characteristic changes induced by voltage bias and light together with their relaxation behavior and interpret them as the consequences of a negative-U type of centers predicted by theoretical calculations of Lany and Zunger. It is shown how the properties of these centers justify a model of p+ layer explaining specific features of light and dark current-voltage characteristics. The discussion showing the impact of various charge distributions on carrier transport is presented. The arguments are provided, that centers responsible for metastable effects are also to blame for majority of photovoltaic losses exhibited in various devices.

The role of spin states in the process of charge carrier transport in copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) nanowires has been established. According to the data obtained, CuPc nanowires are in the η-phase. The current-voltage characteristics (IVC) of a photosensitive cell based on CuPc nanowires in a magnetic field are investigated. As a result of experiments, it was found that applying an external magnetic field, the spins of two positively charged polarons are oriented in one direction. The channel of formation of the bipolaron is blocked. As a result, a decrease in the short-circuit current of the photosensitive cell is observed by more than 61%.

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.

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.
