Abstract

Nickel–phthalocyanine (NiPc) thin film was prepared by thermal evaporation method on n-Si single-crystal substrate to fabricate p-NiPc/n-Si heterojunction. The electrical transport properties of the p-NiPc/n-Si heterojunctions were investigated by temperature-dependent current–voltage (I–V) measurements and room temperature capacitance–voltage (C–V) measurements. The temperature-dependent I–V characteristics revealed that the forward conduction was determined by thermionic-emission and space-charge-limited current (SCLC) mechanisms at low and high voltage, respectively⋅ On the other hand, the reverse current is limited by the carrier generation process. The 1/C2–V plot indicated the junction was abrupt and the junction built-in potential was 0.61V at room temperature.
