“…One should point out that the CEPC effect observed in the LaSrCoO 3 − δ thin film cannot be connected to heat-induced effects due to the electrical current and light illumination. Hu et al estimated that a light illumination of 56.7 mW cm −2 and an electrical current of 20 μA will give a temperature rise of only about 0.5 K [14]. Therefore, the remarkable CEPC effect cannot be explained by such a minute heating effect.…”

“…It is well known that the oxygen content of LSCO is also an important factor that can strongly affect their physical properties such as the crystal structure as well as the electrical transport and magnetic properties [8][9][10][11][12]. However, although many studies have been reported on the photoinduced effects in the oxygen-deficient doped manganites and multiferroic BiFeO 3 films [13][14][15][16][17], also as transition metal perovskite oxides, few studies have been reported on the photoinduced effects in the oxygen-deficient lightly doped cobaltates. In this letter, we report studies of the photoconductivity and its current enhancement in oxygen-deficient La 0.5 Sr 0.5 CoO 3 − δ (LSCO 3 ) thin films.…”
Effects of light and electrical current on the electrical transport properties and photovoltaic properties of oxygen-stoichiometric La 0.5 Sr 0.5 CoO 3 and oxygendeficient La 0.5 Sr 0.5 CoO 3 − δ films prepared by pulsed laser deposition have been investigated. Oxygen-deficient films annealed in a vacuum show an obvious increase of resistance and lattice parameter. Besides, a direct correlation between the magnitude of the photoconductivity and oxygen vacancies in La 0.5 Sr 0.5 CoO 3 − δ films has been observed. The light illumination causes a resistance drop to show the photoconductivity effect. Moreover, the photoconductivity can be remarkably enhanced by increasing the electrical current, that is, it exhibits current-enhanced photoconductivity (CEPC) effect. Oxygen deficiency in the annealed film leads to the formation of a structural disorder in the CoO Co conduction channel due to the accumulated oxygen vacancies and hence is believed to be responsible for the increase in higher photoconductivity. These results may be important for practical applications in photoelectric devices.

“…It is well known that, when positively charged oxygen vacancies (V Os ) attract electrons, the V Os act as electron trapping centers. [27][28][29][30] Consider that, in both LRS and HRS, the barrier height of the BLFO/LSMO junction is always higher than that of the Ag/BLFO junction. [31] Thus, the current in the negative bias part is mainly limited by the Ag/BLFO interface.…”
