Photovoltaic and rectification properties of In/trans-(CH)x/electrodag +502 schottky-barrier cells

Abstract

The electrical and photovoltaic properties of In/trans-(CH)_x/Electrodag +502 sandwich cells have been examined. The forward bias dark current obeys a modified Shockley equation. The junction reverse bias current fits the image-force lowering relationship. The capacitance-voltage characteristics were analysed. A photo-voltage and a photocurrent were observed under polychromatic or monochromatic illumination. Photovoltaic action spectra are similar to the adsorption spectra. The dependence of I_sc and V_oc on the light intensity was determined. The temperature effect on I_o, C, I_sc and V_oc was also investigated.
