Özet

Metal-polymer-semiconductor (Al/P3HT/p-Si) structures have been fabricated and their electrical characteristics have been investigated using capacitance-voltage (C-V) and conductance-voltage (G/omega-V) measurements. These measurements were performed in the frequency and voltage range of 3 kHz-1MHz and +/- 5 V, respectively, at room temperature. The values of diffusion potential (V-D), doping concentration of acceptor atoms (N-A), Fermi energy level (E-F) and barrier height (Phi(B)) were obtained from the reverse bias C-2 vs V plot for each frequency by considering interface states (N-ss), series resistance (R-s), and interfacial layer effects. All these parameters were found as strong functions of frequency and voltage. The values of both N-ss and R-s decrease with increasing frequency. On the other hand, the value of N-ss is prominent in the inversion and depletion regions at low frequency, but R-s and interfacial layer are prominent in the accumulation region at high frequency. Therefore, to see the effect of R-s both the C-V and G/omega-V plots were corrected for high frequencies. The voltage dependent profile of N-ss and R-s were also obtained from Hill-Coleman and Nicollian-Brews method, respectively. Obtained results confirm that the values of N-ss, R-s and interfacial layer are more effective on the impedance measurements. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
