Book Preparation and Characterization of Properties of Electrodeposited Copper Oxide Films

Download or read book Preparation and Characterization of Properties of Electrodeposited Copper Oxide Films written by Longcheng Wang and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Copper oxides, including cuprous oxide and cupric oxide, are prepared by electrochemical deposition. The structural, optical and electrical properties of as-deposited copper oxides are evaluated, based on which cuprous oxide is selected as a promising material for photovoltaic applications. Electrodeposited cuprous oxide is a p-type semiconductor with a direct band gap of 2.06 eV. The mechanism of how pH affects the structural and electrical properties of electrodeposited cuprous oxide films is studied. In the pH range of 7.5 to 12.0, there are three different preferred crystal orientations: (100), (110) and (111). With different orientations, cuprous oxide shows different surface morphology and grain size. Bath pH effect on structural properties is explained by its effect on the growth rate of different crystallographic planes with different Cu+/O2- ratios. Capacitance-voltage measurements are performed to study electrical properties of differently oriented cuprous oxide films. The results show that the flat band potential shifts negatively as the bath pH increases. Electrodeposited cupric oxide is a p-type cupric oxide with an indirect band gap of 1.32 eV. Different cleaning methods are used to clean the substrate surface for electrodeposition of cupric oxide. Electrochemical etching is proven to be an effective method for Cu substrate cleaning in cupric oxide deposition. In particular, in-situ electrochemical etching is developed, which prevents the cleaned substrate from exposure to air. Current-voltage characterization shows that cupric oxide deposited on electrochemically etched Cu substrates has favorable electrical properties and better rectification behavior. Cuprous oxide is selected for the fabrication of p-n homo-junction because it has better crystallinity, bigger grains, better control over crystal quality and a direct band gap. Based on the model that bath pH can control the stoichiometry and native point defects in electrodeposited cuprous oxide films, both p-type and n-type cuprous oxides are successfully deposited at different bath pH values. For samples deposited at pH below 7.5, cuprous oxides are n-type semiconductors, while at bath pH above 9.0, cuprous oxides are p-type semiconductors. Furthermore, a two-step deposition process is developed to fabricate a p-n homo-junction in cuprous oxide. Current-voltage measurements show a typical rectification behavior of a p-n junction for these samples, which suggest that a p-n homo-junction of cuprous oxide is achieved, which is, to our knowledge, the first p-n homo-junction of cuprous oxide prepared by any method. The significance of this invention is because it enables the fabrication of solar cell with a reasonable high conversion efficiency (& sim;10%) at a very low cost.

Book Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensors

Download or read book Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensors written by Leiva Casemiro Oliveira and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-02-23 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the important physical phenomenon of Surface Plasmon Resonance or Surface Plasmon Polaritons in thin metal films, a phenomenon which is exploited in the design of a large variety of physico-chemical optical sensors. In this treatment, crucial materials aspects for design and optimization of SPR sensors are investigated and outlined in detail. The text covers the selection of nanometer thin metal films, ranging from free-electron to the platinum type conductors, along with their combination with a large variety of dielectric substrate materials, and associated individual layer and opto-geometric arrangements. Furthermore, as-yet hardly explored SPR features of selected metal–metal and metal–dielectric super lattices are included in this report. An in-depth multilayer Fresnel evaluation provides the mathematical tool for this optical analysis, which otherwise relies solely on experimentally determined electro-optical materials parameters.
