Those parameters include the reverse saturation current (I<sub>s</sub>), the ideality factor (n), the series and the shunt resistances (R<sub>s</sub> and R<sub>sh</sub>), the effective and the zero bias barrier heights (Φ<sub>B</sub> and Φ<sub>B0</sub>), the product of the electrical active area (A) and the effective Richardson constant (A**), the built-in potential (V<sub>bi</sub>), together with the semiconductor doping concentration (N<sub>A</sub> or N<sub>D</sub>). Some of them have been extracted by using two or three different methods. The main features of each approach have been clearly stated. From one parameter to another, results have been discussed in terms of structure performance, comparison on one another when extracted from different methods, accordance or discordance with data from other works, and parameter’s temperature or voltage dependence. A comparison of results on Φ<sub>B</sub>, ΦB0</sub>, n and N<sub>A</sub> or N<sub>D</sub> parameters with some available data in literature for the same parameters, has especially led to clear propositions on the identity of the analyzed SBD’s metal and semiconductor-type.展开更多

Three anodes with different diameters are adopted in a 50-kW torch: 25 mm, 30 mm, and 35 nun, respectively. Two different diameters of anodes, that is, 100 mm and 130 mm, are adopted in a 1-MW plasma torch. The arc voltage shows a negative trend with the increase of arc current under the operating regimes. On the contrary, arc voltage shows a positive trend as the flow rate of carder gas increases, and a similar trend is found with increasing the external magnetic flux density. A similarity formula is constructed to correlate the experimental data of the torches mentioned above. Linear fitting shows that the Pearson correlation coefficient is 0.9958.展开更多

The current-voltage (I - V) characteristics are nonlinear from 300 down to 60 K. Some step-like structures in the I - V curves and oscillation peaks in the differential conductance (dI/dV - V) curves have been observed even at room temperature. It proposes that the observed behaviour can be attributed to Coulomb-blockade transport in the one-dimensional CdS nanowires with diameters of 6-10 nm.展开更多

In this study, we investigate some main electrical parameters of the gold/poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenyl C61 bu- tyric acid methyl ester:2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane/n-type silicon (A...In this study, we investigate some main electrical parameters of the gold/poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenyl C61 bu- tyric acid methyl ester:2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane/n-type silicon (Au/P3HT:PCBM:F4-TCNQ/n- Si) metal-polymer-semiconductor (MPS) Schottky barrier diode (SBD) in terms of the effects of F4-TCNQ concentration (0%, 1%, and 2%). F4-TCNQ-doped P3HT:PCBM is fabricated to figure out the p-type doping effect on the device per- formance. The main electrical parameters, such as ideality factor (n), barrier height (ФB0), series resistance (Rs), shunt resistance (Rsh), and density of interface states (Nss) are determined from the forward and reverse bias current-voltage (l-V) characteristics in the dark and at room temperature. The values of n, Rs, ФB0, and Nss are significantly reduced by using the 1% F4-TCNQ doping in P3HT:PCBM:F4-TCNQ organic blend layer, additionally, the carrier mobility and current are increased by the soft (1%) doping. The most ideal values of electrical parameters are obtained for 1% F4-TCNQ used diode. On the other hand, the carrier mobility and current for the hard doping (2%) become far away from the ideal diode values due to the unbalanced generation of holes/electrons and doping-induced disproportion when compared with 1% F4-TCNQ doping. These results show that the electrical properties of MPS SBDs strongly depend on the F4-TCNQ doping and doping concentration of interfacial P3HT:PCBM:F4-TCNQ organic layer. Moreover, the soft F4-TCNQ dop- ing concentration (1%) in P3HT:PCBM:F4-TCNQ organic layer significantly improves the electrical characteristics of the Au/P3HT:PCBM:F4-TCNQ/n-Si (MPS) SBDs which enables the fabricating of high-quality electronic and optoelectronic devices.展开更多

Therefore, many efforts have been made to synthesize multidimensional nanostructures for new and efficient nanodevices. Among those materials, zinc oxide (ZnO) has gained substantial attention owing to many outstanding properties. ZnO besides its wide band gap of 3.34 eV exhibits a relatively large excitons binding energy (60 meV) at room temperature which is attractive for optoelectronic applications. Likewise, cupric oxide (CuO) has a narrow band gap of 1.2 eV and a variety of chemo-physical properties that are attractive in many fields. Moreover, composite nanostructures of these two oxides (CuO/ZnO) may pave the way for various new applications. So in this thesis, eight samples of CuO/ZnO junction were synthesized and exposed to temperatures 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120 and 130. The electrical properties of Schottky diode junctions were analyzed by I-V measurements under the influence of direct solar radiation and, lag of radiation (darkness) which shows the semi-logarithmic I-V characteristic curve of the fabricated photodiodes. Also energy band gap was estimated and the morphology and particle sizes of the as-prepared sample were determined by SEM. The SEM images of ZnO + CuO sample films were annealed at 60°C to 130°C step 10.展开更多
