Schottky barrier formation between polypyrrole and indium

Polymeric materials are emerging as an important component for organic electronics due to their combined features of soft materials and organic semiconductor/conductor. Different from solid-state bulk materials, polymers are synthesized and modulated with a facile method, with their controllable properties. Therefore, polymers have been recently used in Schottky junction devices that demonstrate features of enhanced performances, flexibility, and easy processing. Polymer-based Schottky junctions have drawn a lot of interest in several prototype applications like photodetectors, energy harvesters, and gas sensors. With this review, we summarize recent progress in synthesis and modulation of polymers and fabrication of polymer-based Schottky junction devices. Designs of applications of sensory devices like photodetectors, energy harvesters, and gas sensors are also presented.

“…Yet, it might be important to distinguish bulk properties of the samples from electrical contact properties, which very often also influence the non-ohmic behaviour, as reported previously for samples formed by metal-polymer-contacts (TOMOZAWA et al ;MIYAUCHI et al 1987MIYAUCHI et al , 1989.…”

We deal with optical properties of TTF-DT,NF together with electrical conductivity measurements made with rod-like samples carrying a silver paint contact at both ends. Schottky barrier formation was observed in each case, although strongly modified by tunneling carriers across the only thin barriers formed due to a high impurity content of the samples. In the higher voltage range non-ohmic bulk conductivity behaviour is manifest.

In this work polyaniline was chemically synthesized. Schottky diode was fabricated based on polyaniline as p-type semiconductor, gold as Ohmic contact and aluminum as Schottky contact. Coating of metals was carried out with physically vapour deposition method and coating of polymer was done with solvent casting method. Current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of diode were measured and current transport mechanism of diode was studied. I-V characteristics showed that Schottky diode based on pure polyaniline follows the thermionic emission mechanism. The electronic parameters of Schottky diode such as ideality factor, barrier height and reverse saturation current have been determined.
