We have investigated the thermal annealing effects on electrical and structural properties of Au Schottky contacts on n-type
GaN using current–voltage (I–V), capacitance–voltage (C–V), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) measurements. The calculated Schottky barrier
height of the as-deposited Au/n-GaN diode was 0.85 eV (I–V) and 1.4 eV (C–V), respectively. However, after annealing at 300 °C it was found that the Schottky barrier height (SBH) slightly decreased
to 0.77 eV (I–V) and 1.24 eV (C–V), and then slightly increased to 0.83 eV (I–V) and 1.30 eV (C–V) when the contact was annealed at 400 °C. With further increase in annealing temperature to 500 °C the barrier height was
decreased and the respective values are 0.73 eV (I–V) and 1.02 eV (C–V). Based on the X-ray diffraction and RBS results, the formation of gallide phases at the Au/n-GaN interface could be the
reason for variation in the Schottky barrier heights upon annealing temperatures. 相似文献

The electrical conductivity of polyaniline doped polyvinylchloride (PVC) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) thin films has
been measured by studying the I–V characteristics at various temperatures in the range 323–363 K. The results are presented in the form of I–V characteristics and analysis has been made by interpretation of Poole-Frenkel, Fowler-Nordheim, Schottky ln(J) vs T plots, Richardson and Arrhenius plots. The analysis of these results suggests that Schottky and Richardson mechanisms are
primarily responsible for the observed conduction. 相似文献

A series of n-ZnO/p-Si thin film heterojunctions have been fabricated by a low cost sol–gel technique for different ZnO film thicknesses and
the dark as well as photo current–voltage (I–V) characteristics have been investigated in details. The heterojunction with ZnO thickness of 0.46 μm shows the best diode
characteristics in terms of rectification ratio, I

We introduce a new type of silicon micro-wire (SiMW) solar cell with a conformal zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods anti-reflection
coating (ARC) and discuss the optical and photovoltaic properties of the SiMW solar cells with controlled ZnO nanorods. The
fabrication processes were composed of metal-assisted electroless etching combined with photolithography, spin-on-dopant diffusion,
and hydrothermal synthesized ZnO nanorods growth. We found that the combination of Si wire geometry and ZnO ARC was able to
maximize the light absorption and to minimize the light reflectance. Illuminated current–voltage (I–V) results show that the photovoltaic efficiency of SiMW solar cells with optimized ZnO ARC was enhanced more than 50% and
the short-circuit current density was improved by over 43% compared to SiMW solar cells without ZnO ARC. This is mainly attributed
to the reduced light reflectance and enhanced photon absorption. These hybrid structures are promising for making low-cost
Si wire solar cells and making them applicable to photovoltaic devices with large areas. 相似文献

The carrier concentration and the densities of predominant point defects in CdTe〈I〉 crystals have been calculated as functions
of two-step annealing parameters using quasi-chemical and thermodynamic modeling. We have identified the dominant native and
impurity defect species, which govern the electrical properties of the material, and proposed a compensation model that takes
into account not only native defects, ITe+ substitutional defects, and their complexes with native point defects, such as (V
Cd2−ITe+)−, and (V
Cd2−2ITe+)0, but also DX
− centers. The equilibrium constants of formation of the V
Cd2−ITe+)−, defect complex and center have been evaluated. 相似文献

ZnO films were deposited on Al2O3 substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) at temperatures of 400, 450 and 500 °C. The photoconductivity
of the films has been analyzed for ultraviolet detector application. The changes in photoresponse and current–voltage (I–V) are correlated with the deposition temperatures and microcrystalline structures. The study suggested that the photoresponse
originating from bulk- and surface-related processes. For a film deposited at 400 °C, a 1 ms fast rising time and a 5 ms fall
time were observed. The photoresponsivity is ∼24 A/W with a 3 V bias. 相似文献

The effect of rapid thermal annealing on structural and electrical properties of high k HfO2 thin films is investigated. The films were initially deposited at pre-optimized sputtering voltage of 0.8 kV and substrate
bias of 80 V in order to get optimized results for oxide charges and leakage current as a MOS device. The film properties
were investigated for optimum annealing temperature in oxygen and optimum rapid thermal annealing temperature in nitrogen
respectively to get the best electrical results as a MOS device structure. The film thickness, composition and microstructure
is studied by Laser Ellipsometry, XRD and AFM and the effect of thermal annealing is shown. The electrical I–V and C–V characteristics
of the annealed dielectric film were investigated employing Al-HfO2-Si MOS capacitor structure. The flat-band voltage (V
fb) and oxide-charge density (Q
ox) were extracted from the high-frequency C–V curve. Dielectric study were further carried out on HfO2 thin films having metal–insulator–metal (MIM) configuration over a wide temperature (300–500 K) and frequency (100 Hz to
1 MHz) range. 相似文献

ZnO nanoparticles were mixed with low density polyethylene (LDPE) to form nanocomposites. The distribution of ZnO filler particles was controlled by changing the mixing method, and the effects of controlled inhomogeneous distribution on the electrical resistivity were measured. The percolation limit in the composites with controlled inhomogeneity decreased significantly compared to that of the analogous nanocomposites with uniform filler distributions, and the resistivity of the filled composites decreased as a function of applied field strength, exhibiting a nonlinear I–V relationship. The nonlinearity increased with ZnO filler concentration. 相似文献

Hafnium oxide (HfO2) has emerged as the most promising highkdielectric for MOS devices. As-deposited sputtered HfO2 thin films have large number of defects resulting in increased oxide charge and leakage current. In this paper the effect
of sputtering voltage, bias sputtering and post deposition thermal annealing is investigated. The I–V and C–V characteristics of the dielectric film are studied employing Al–HfO2–Si MOS capacitor structure. It is found that oxide charge increases with increasing sputtering voltage. Thermal annealing
in oxygen reduces the interface/oxide charges and leakage current. It is shown that applying substrate bias during film deposition
leakage current is further reduced by an order of magnitude. The microstructure of thin film is examined by AFM. The reduction
in surface roughness with bias sputtering is shown. The experimental results are presented and discussed for device application. 相似文献

Dielectric properties andI–V characteristics of solution-gas interface-formed PbS thin-film capacitors (Al/PbS/Al) of various thicknesses have been studied
in the frequency range 10-106 Hz at various temperatures (300–443 K). Current-voltage (I–V) characteristics show space-charge-limited conduction. Dielectric constant (ε) increases with increasing film thickness and temperature and decreases with increase of frequency. The loss factor (tanδ) peaks observed in tanδ vs frequency and tanδ vs temperature reveal relaxation effect from dipolar orientation. These maxima shift to higher-temperature region with increasing
frequency. The large increase in capacitance (C) and dielectric constant (ε) towards low-frequency (f) region indicates the possibility of an interfacial polarization mechanism in this region. 相似文献

We report the preparation of polyaniline (PANI) nanoparticles dispersed in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix. From SEM picture
it is seen that the particle sizes vary from 100–20 nm. Also with increase in PVA content the stability of dispersion is found
to increase. Apart from SEM, spin cast films of PANI in PVA are also characterized through XRD and FTIR. XRD shows increase
in crystallinity with PVA content and FTIR gives evidence of crosslinking between PANI and PVA molecules. In plane electrical
conductivity (in the range of 102 Scm−1) and the exponent of nonlinear I–V are found to decrease with increase of PVA content. There is a good correlation between SEM, XRD, FTIR and electrical properties. 相似文献

The electrical and structural properties of Pt/Au Schottky contacts to n-InP have been investigated in the annealing temperature
range of 200–500 °C by current–voltage (I–V), capacitance–voltage (C–V), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements. The barrier height of as-deposited Pt/Au Schottky
contact is found to be 0.46 eV (I–V) and 0.68 eV (C–V). For the contacts annealed at 300 °C, the barrier height is increased to 0.51 eV (I–V) 0.89 eV (C–V). Further increase in annealing temperature up to 500 °C, the barrier height has been found to decrease to 0.49 eV (I–V) 0.82 eV (C–V) from those values obtained at 300 °C. It has been found that the electrical characteristics are significantly improved for
Pt/Au Schottky contacts upon annealing at 300 °C. Based on the Auger electron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction results,
the formation of Pt–In and Au–In intermetallic compounds at the interface may be the reason for the increase of barrier height
after annealing at 300 °C for Pt/Au Schottky contacts. From the atomic force microscopy (AFM) results, it is evident that
the surface becomes smooth with RMS roughness of 16.91 nm for the Pt/Au Schottky contacts after annealing at 500 °C compared
to the 300 °C annealed sample (RMS roughness of 17.33 nm). 相似文献

The high field electrical switching behaviour of lithium-phospho-vanadate glasses has been studied by determining the current-voltage
characteristics. The investigated glasses exhibit temperature, thickness and composition dependent trends. At low current,
the I–V characteristics obey Ohm’s law followed by a negative resistance region where the bulk behaviour dominates and at higher
values of current the sample goes to a low resistance state. The studied glasses exhibit memory type switching. It is suggested
that electrical switching is due to the formation of conducting channels that are due to electronic origin while thermal effects
dominate once the channels are formed resulting in crystallization. 相似文献

Zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films have been prepared on silicon substrates by sol–gel spin coating technique with spinning speed
of 3,000 rpm. The films were annealed at different temperatures from 200 to 500 °C and found that ZnO films exhibit different
nanostructures at different annealing temperatures. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results showed that the ZnO films convert
from amorphous to polycrystalline phase after annealing at 400 °C. The metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) capacitors were fabricated
using ZnO films deposited on pre-cleaned silicon (100) substrates and electrical properties such as current versus voltage
(I–V) and capacitance versus voltage (C–V) characteristics were studied. The electrical resistivity decreased with increasing
annealing temperature. The oxide capacitance was measured at different annealing temperatures and different signal frequencies.
The dielectric constant and the loss factor (tanδ) were increased with increase of annealing temperature. 相似文献

ZnO/Si solar cell fabricated by spray pyrolysis technique 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The ZnO/Si heterojunctions have been prepared by depositing n-ZnO films doped with aluminium on p-Si by spray pyrolysis method.
Heterojunction solar cells were fabricated using the configuration Al/ZnO/Si/In. The electrical properties of the heterojunction
are investigated by means of current–voltage measurements in the temperature range 295–375 K. The cells show the rectifying
behaviour characterized by the current–voltage (I–V) measurement under a dark condition, while photoelectric effects have
been exhibited under the illumination. As a result, the conversion efficiency of the fabricated cell of about 6.6% was obtained. 相似文献

sputtering. The PbTiO3, AlO

and SiO

films were attempted to serve as the gate dielectric layers in the devices, respectively, and XRD was employed to investigate
the crystal structure of ZnO films deposited on these dielectric layers. The optical properties of transparent TFTs were measured
and revealed the average transmittance ranged from 60 to 80% in the visible part of the spectrum. Electrical measurement shows
the properties of the ZnO–TFTs have great relations with the device structure. The bottom-gate TFTs have better behaviors
than top-gate ones with the mobility, threshold voltage and the current on/off ratio of 18.4 cm2 V−1 s−1, −0.7 V and 104, respectively. The electrical difference of the devices may be due to different character of the interface between the channel
and dielectric layers. 相似文献

The electrical properties of ruthenium (Ru) and ruthenium/gold (Ru/Au) Schottky contacts on n-type GaN are investigated as a function of annealing temperature by current–voltage (I–V) and capacitance–voltage (C–V) techniques. The Schottky barrier height of as-deposited Ru/n-GaN is found to be 0.88 eV (I–V) and 1.10 eV (C–V) respectively. However, after annealing at 500°C for 1 min in the nitrogen ambient, the decrease in barrier height is quite considerable and found to be 0.80 eV (I–V) and 0.86 eV (C–V). In the case of Ru/Au Schottky diode the measured barrier height is 0.75 eV (I–V) and 0.93 eV (C–V). In contrast to the Ru contacts, it is interesting to note that the barrier height of Ru/Au depends on the annealing temperature. Annealing at 300°C improves the barrier height and the corresponding values are 0.99 and 1.34 eV. Further increase in annealing temperature decreases the barrier height and the respective values are 0.72 and 1.08 eV at 500°C. From the above observations, it is clear that the electrical properties of annealed Ru/Au contacts are improved compared to the as-deposited films. However, Ru Schottky contacts exhibit a kind of thermal stability during annealing. 相似文献

We have experimentally studied the reverse-bias branch of the current-voltage (I–U) characteristics of high-temperature two-electrode devices (rectifying diode, Zener diode, hot electron emitter), the technology
of which involves the stage of binary zinc-magnesium doping. Factors leading to the development of various types of the avalanche
breakdown are analyzed as dependent on the Zn/Mg ratio. Differences in the characteristics and behavior of the I–U curves are related to features of the acceptor diffusion, which always accompanies the process of doping involved in the
growth of multilayer epitaxial p–n structures. 相似文献

Polycrystalline sample of Ba5SmTi3V7O30 was prepared by a high-temperature solid-state reaction technique. Structural and microstructural characterizations were
performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). X-ray preliminary structural studies reveal that
the material has orthorhombic structure at room temperature. Detailed electrical (dielectric and impedance) properties of
the material studied by using a complex impedance spectroscopy (CIS) technique in a wide temperature range (33–450 °C) at
different frequencies (102–106 Hz) reveal that the relative dielectric constant of the material increases with rise in temperature and thus bulk has a major
contribution to its dielectric and electrical properties. The bulk resistance of the material decreases with rise in temperature
exhibiting a typical negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR) behavior. The nature of the temperature variation
of conductivity and value of activation energy, suggest that the conduction process is of mixed-type (ionic–polaronic and
space charge). The existence of ferroelectricity in the compound was confirmed from polarization study. 相似文献

Investigation of electrical conduction in polyvinyl formal 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Current-voltage (I–V) characteristics of pure polyvinyl formal (PVF) were investigated at different fields, range 5–100 kV/cm, as a function of
temperature, range 313–363 K. It was observed that while at low fields (up to 25 kV/cm), the conduction was Ohm’s law-dependent
at high fields (beyond 25 kV/cm), the conduction was Poole-Frenkel (P-F) mechanism-dependent. An attempt was made to identify
the nature of the current by comparing its observed dependence on temperature, electric field and electrode materials with
their respective characteristic features of the existing theories of electrical conduction. The current showed a strong dependence
on temperature. To identify the possible mechanism of conduction, current versus square root of field characteristics were
drawn with aluminium, silver, copper and gold as upper electrodes and Al as the lower electrodes. The observed characteristic
suggested that the charge carriers were generated by the field-assisted lowering of coulombic barriers at the traps, and were
subsequently conducted through the bulk of the material by a hopping process between the localized states by a Jonscher-Ansari-modified
P-F mechanism. The calculated value of the modified P-F barrier was ⋍ 1·94×10−19 J (1·21 eV). 相似文献
