Abstract
Development of a metal/organic-semiconductor Schottky junction as an alternative to the metal/inorganic-semiconductor junction is reported. Metal/polypyrrole (PP) junctions have been prepared with electrochemically deposited doped PP films of different thickness and various metals (In, Sn, Ti, and Al) as electrodes. The electrical characteristics of the junction depend upon the work functions of PP and the metal. It has been possible to prepare Schottky barriers on the PP films with a metal electrode having a work function lower than that of the polymer. Various physical characteristics of the polymer, work function, Fermi level, and carrier concentration have been estimated.
