We describe a simple but efficient technique for fabricating heterojunction diodes by simply depositing undoped and Cr-doped CuO thin films on n-Si substrates, and we investigate the electrical properties of diodes for different mixing ratios of chromium oxide and copper oxide. The results show that a change in CrO and CuO concentration significantly affects the electrical properties of Ag/Cu1 − xCrxO/n-Si diodes. The all diodes exhibit rectification behavior, as shown by their dark I-V characteristics. The crucial junction parameters such as series resistance (Rs), rectification ratio (RR), ideality factor (n) and barrier height (ΦB) were calculated by using I-V data. the characteristics of capacitance-voltage (C-V), conductance-voltage (G-V) and series resistance-voltage (Rs-V) were measured in the frequency range of 10 kHz to 1 MHz. The obtained results demonstrate that the electrical properties of the Ag/Cu1 − xCrxO/n-Si diodes are controlled by the different mixing concentration ratios of chromium oxide and copper oxide content.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
