Straightening properties of heterostructures based on fullerene and hybrid zinc complex

Abstract

This work presents the results of using a new coordination compound C24H24N6O3Zn as a component for constructing heterostructures based on C60 fullerene. A procedure for the synthesis and preparation of a hybrid material is described. The formation of film structures from initial powder materials was carried out by pouring from a solution onto substrates using various types of solvents. The results of microscopy of the surfaces of the obtained films, as well as optical and luminescent properties are presented. Additionally, the optical band gap of the obtained films from hybrid materials was calculated. The addition of a zinc complex to a bond with fullerene suggests the appearance of a potential barrier at the interface between active layers. The resulting thin-film structures have rectifying light current-voltage characteristics. Additionally, the possibility of using the theoretical Poole--Frenkel model to explain the hopping conduction mechanism of the heterostructure under study is considered.
