Electroluminescence from heterojunctions of nanocrystalline CdS and ZnS with porous silicon

Abstract: Electroluminescence from heterojunctions fabricated by depositing ultrathin films of nanocrystalline CdS and ZnS on porous silicon by the liquid–liquid interface reaction technique is reported. Junction current–voltage characteristics were studied for different thicknesses of the deposited films. Large forward currents on the order of 180 mA/cm2 and a rectification ratio on the order of 103 were characteristic of the diode. The reverse breakdown voltage on the order of 150 V indicated the stability of these di… Show more

“…The surface roughness was determined for the thin films from the AFM images by the instrument's data analysis software (shown in table 3). All the thin films show granular structure with variable rolling hills [29]. The formation of bigger rolling hills was found to reduce from figure 5(a) to (f).…”

“…CdS polycrystalline thin-films have a very wide range of applications, especially in CuIn x Ga 1−x Se 2 (CIGS) and CdTe thin-film solar cells, respectively as buffer layer and window layer materials [1,2]. In addition, it was reported that they are also used as electroluminescent materials [3], field-effect-transistors [4], and light emitting diodes [5]. Regarding the fabrication of these films, a variety of techniques have been developed, such as electrodeposition [6], spray pyrolysis [7], vacuum evaporation [8], and chemical bath deposition [9].…”

“…Si À H bonds would break and other bonds form after ZnS deposition on the PS surface. It can be assumed that the PL in PS passivating bonds might be positioned much below the valence band edge of the PS [26]. In Fig.…”
