The calculation of electronic parameters of an Au/β-carotene/n-Si Schottky barrier diode

Electronic properties of Al/DNA/p-Si MIS diode: Application as temperature sensor

“…The electrical properties of metal/semiconductor (MS) structures can be modified by organic semiconductors when an organic layer is inserted between the inorganic semiconductor and metal. The studies made in literature have shown that the barrier height could be either increased or decreased by using organic thin layer on inorganic semiconductor [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]. New electrical properties of the MS contacts can be promoted by means of the choice of suitable organic semiconductors [1].…”

Electronic and Photovoltaic Properties of p-Si/PCBM:MEH-PPV Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Photodiode

“…Organic photovoltaic devices are promising candidates for renewable sources of electrical energy because of ease in fabrication and low production cost as well as light weight and flexibility [11][12][13][14]. Photodiodes based on polythiophene and its derivates organic semiconductors and different organic-inorganic heterojunctions such as pyronine-B/Si, β-carotene/Si, chitin/n-Si and poly[2-methoxy, 5-(2 -ethyl-hexyloxy)--1,4-phenylenevinylene] (MEH-PPV)/p-Si, 4-tricyanovinyl-N,N-diethylaniline/p-Si, Al/p-Si/copper phthalocyanine, chitosan/n-Si, organic/inorganic Schottky, FSS/n-Si, NiPc/p-Si, Zn(Phen)q/p-Si and ddq/p-Si have been fabricated and their electronic properties have been investigated [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. The prospect of being able to generate electricity from sunlight has fuelled intensive research in inorganic and more recently in organic photovoltaics [25].…”

Temperature dependent electrical and dielectric properties of Au/polyvinyl alcohol (Ni,Zn-doped)/n-Si Schottky diodes

“…In recent years, considerable attention has been given the fabrication and electrical characterization of organic semiconductor devices because of their wide variety of electronic and electro-optical properties [2][3][4][5][6][7]. The interface states and organic interfacial layer at metal/inorganic semiconductor structures plays an important role in the determination of the main characteristics parameters of the devices.…”
