ABSTRACTZnO/Ta2O5 heterojunctions were formed on glass substrates using low temperature processes. Formerly insulating Ta2O5 films were deposited on glass substrates by vacuum evaporation using Ta2O5 powder, Afterwards transparent and conductive ZnO films were formed on the Ta2O5 films by thermal oxidation at 3200C in air atmosphere of zinc (Zn) films deposited by dc sputtering process. Structural and optical properties of ZnO were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL). The Ta2O5 insulating films were characterized by Raman scattering. The ZnO/Ta2O5 heterojunction was characterized by current-voltage measurements at room temperature as well as transient response under a rectangular-pulse voltage source. The electrical and the transient response suggest that the ZnO/Ta2O5 heterojunction is a potential alternative for the fabrication of alternating-current-driven thin film electroluminescent (ACTFEL) devices.

It is currently of huge importance to find alternatives to fossil fuels to produce clean energy and to ensure the energy demands of modern society. In the present work, two types of hybrid solar cell devices were developed and characterized. The photoactive layers of the hybrid heterojunctions comprise poly (allylamine chloride) (PAH) and graphene oxide (GO) and TiO2 or ZnO films, which were deposited using the layer-by-layer technique and DC-reactive magnetron sputtering, respectively, onto fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO)-coated glass substrates. Scanning electron microscopy evidenced a homogeneous inorganic layer, the surface morphology of which was dependent on the number of organic bilayers. The electrical characterization pointed out that FTO/(PAH/GO)50/TiO2/Al, FTO/(PAH/GO)30/ZnO/Al, and FTO/(PAH/GO)50/ZnO/Al architectures were the only ones to exhibit a diode behavior, and the last one experienced a decrease in current in a low-humidity environment. The (PAH/GO)20 impedance spectroscopy study further revealed the typical impedance of a parallel RC circuit for a dry environment, whereas in a humid environment, it approached the impedance of a series of three parallel RC circuits, indicating that water and oxygen contribute to other conduction processes. Finally, the achieved devices should be encapsulated to work successfully as solar cells.
