The effect of soft X-ray irradiation to the Schottky diode properties was analyzed in this paper. The built-in voltage, leakage current, and work function of Schottky diode were investigated. The current-voltage characteristics of the Schottky diode are measured at room temperature. After irradiation at 70 keV for 55 seconds the forward current and leakage current are increase slightly. On the other hand, the built-in voltage is decrease from the initial value about 0.12 V. Consequently, this method can cause the Schottky diode has low power consumption. The results show that soft X-ray can improve the characteristics of Schottky diode.

ABSTRACTThe dark current-voltage characteristics of PIN structures are studied and analyzed for PV samples as for integral device without taking account the performance of the different elements typically used in equivalent circuit model such as diode n-factor, shunt and series resistances. The contribution of all these elements is very important in the development of devices because they determine the performance characteristics. In this work we have studied and compared the temperature dependence of current-voltage characteristics in μc-Si:H and pm-Si:H p-i-n structures having approximately the same efficiencies with emphasis on their different electronic characteristics such as shunt (Rsh) and series (Rs) resistance, ideality factor (n), and the saturation current (Is), which give us some ideas on role of these elements. In the pm-Si:H cell it was observed that the Rs increases with the increase of the temperature in contrast to the μc-Si:H structures, where the series resistance reduces with temperature change from T = 300 up to 480K. In both the pm-Si:H and μc-Si:H samples Rshreduces with temperature change from 300 up to 480 K. The ideality factor in the pm-Si:H structure shows an increase, and in μc-Si:H a reduction, when temperature increases. Saturation current in both cases increases with temperature as it was expected. From the saturation current it was obtained the build-in potential. Analysis behavior of both saturation current and n-factor with temperature shows that build-in potential increases with temperature in the pm-Si:H, but reduces in μc-Si:H structure.
