Abstract

AbstractThe temperature dependence of the forward and reverse portions of the current–voltage characteristic and the photovoltage spectrum of a CdS/ por -Si/ p -Si semiconductor heterostructure are studied. It is found that the current-flow mechanisms are controlled by generation–recombination processes in the spacecharge region of the por -Si/ p -Si heterojunction, carrier tunneling in the por -Si film, and the model of space-charge-limited currents. A simplified version of the energy-band diagram of the heterostructure under study is proposed.
