Özet

Electrical devices involve different types of diode in prospective electronics is of great importance. In this study, p-type Si surface was covered with thin film of TiO2 dispersion in H2O to construct p-Si/TiO2/Al Schottky barrier diode (D1) and the other one with TiO2 dispersion doped with zirconium to construct p-Si/TiO2-Zr/Al diode (D2) by drop-casting method in the same conditions. Electrical properties of as-prepared diodes and effect of zirconium as a dopant were investigated. Current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of these devices were measured at ambient conditions. Some parameters including ideality factor (n), barrier height (phi(B0)), series resistance (Rs) and interface state density (Nss) were calculated from I-V behaviours of diodes. Structural comparisons were based on SEM and EDX measurements. Experimental results indicated that electrical parameters of p-Si/TiO2/Al Schottky device were influenced by the zirconium dopant in TiO2.
