“…Также измерялись активационные характеристики структур, для получения которых использовался высокоомный 24-битный цифровой вольтметр фирмы " Эконикс". Отметим здесь важное обстоятельство: в соответствии с результатами наших более ранних исследований [14] верхний электрод структур Al/nc-Si/Al является нанопористым и может, как мембрана, пропускать молекулы кислорода, азота и воды. Кроме того он способен пропускать некоторое количество падающего на него света, поэтому мы могли изучать также процессы, связанные с фотовозбуждением пленок nc-Si.…”

The paper describes the results of studying the optical and electrical characteristics of films made of silicon nanoparticles (nc-Si) deposited on substrates by high-voltage electrospray from sols of nc-Si in ethanol. It was found that the interaction of ethanol droplets carrying nc-Si with an electric field of corona discharge leads to polymerization of ethanol and formation of a polymer layer on the nanoparticle surface. The geometry and electric field strength in the flow area of ethanol droplets could be changed by means of the focusing electrode in the high-voltage device. As a result we could make nc-Si films with different kind of polymer layer on Si nanoparicle surface: nc-Si A and nc-Si B (the films deposited without and with focusing electrode, respectively). The optical band gap Eg of nc-Si A films increased from 1.9 to 2.2 eV after annealing at the temperatures from room one to 400◦C in air atmosphere. The Eg of the nc-Si B films was independent on annealing and was 1.85 eV. The constancy of Eg in nc-Si B films is explained by the polymer properties on the Si nanoparticles surface in these films and more effective blocking the penetration of oxygen atoms from the surrounding atmosphere during annealing to temperatures of 400◦C than in the case of the polymer in nc-Si A films. The temperature dependences of the conductivity (dark and photo) of nc-Si A films are approximated with good accuracy by two exponential functions, the dark activation energies of the films being approximately equal to 0.75 and 0.1 eV. The conductivity of nc-Si A films decreased noticeably when illuminated with radiation in the range 460−470 nm The temperature dependences of the conductivity of nc-Si B films with good accuracy is approximated by one-exponential function of the activation type with activation energies of 0.73 (dark) and 0.59 eV (photo). In contrast to the nc-Si A films, the photoconductivity of nc-Si B films increase by more than 4 times with respect to the dark conductivity when the films were illuminated anologically. The nc-Si B films are photoactive, since sandwich-like structures of Al/nc-Si B/Al can generate emf. The dark and photo-conductivity of nc-Si A films in the voltage range > 2V is determined by the two-center Poole−Frenkel effect, the concentration of the centers that determine the character of the Poole−Frenkel conductivity was 3 · 1017 cm−3. In nc-Si B films in the voltage range 2−5V, the electronic transport is determined by space-charge-limited currents (SCLC) and at higher voltages by the two-center Pool−Frenkel conduction. The concentration of traps contributing to SCLC in the films is 4 · 1016 cm−3. The concentration of the Pool−Frenkel centers, decreases from 3 · 1016 to 2 · 1014 cm−3 with decreasing temperature in the range 120−400◦C according to the activation law with an activation energy of 0.7 eV.
