Abstract

Photovoltaic properties of Pb0.95La0.05Zr0.54Ti0.46O3 thin film capacitors prepared using solution based method with metal top electrodes having different work functions are investigated in this work. It is shown that by using aluminum, a low work-function metal, as top electrode, the magnitude of photo voltage as well as photo current can be enhanced. More than one magnitude enhancement in the photovoltaic efficiency is observed with Al as top electrode compared to Pt electrodes. This work clearly highlights that an appropriate choice of low work function metal electrode can enhance the photovoltaic response of the ferroelectric thin film capacitors.
